Description

Although it takes some time to prepare this eye-catching cheesecake, the combination of tangy lemon and rich white chocolate is hard to beat. Its always a hit! —Marlene Schollenberger, Bloomington, Indiana

This is delicious, but there is WAY too much batter for a 9 inch springform pan. It took forever to cook, and the top started to brown. Ill try an 11 inch pan next time.

I did do as grandma ikki suggested. By making a lemon glaze. I think it needed the extra lemon flavor. Excellent flavor. One person commented how to keep the crust from sticking to the back of the spoon. I used a measuring cup to press it on the bottom and up the sides. Absolutely delicious!!

This is delicious!! The crust in the recipe didnt really work. It would not stick together and there was no pressing it up the sides of the pan. The second time I made this, I halved the recipe, used a graham cracker crust, and baked in a muffin pan for about 20 minutes. They turned out perfectly. I also made the glaze mentioned in another post both times. It was wonderful!

Im a food critique and an event bigger critique of my own cooking. Actually I dont think it is so much I am a critique as I have a refined palate. And let me tell you, my palate enjoyed this recipe so much I almost smacked my own mouth! Taking the first bite I stared at what was left before me grinning like a kid on Christmas morning anxiously awaiting the next bite. I impressed myself. My husband, a man of few words, said it was the best cheesecake he has ever eaten. So, thank you for sharing this recipe. It is added to my recipe box that I will hand down to my daughters one day.Tips: I did add the icing that grandma ikik recommended and it definitely added to the flavor. After refrigerating over night and before serving the next morning I added grated white chocolate to the cake. Now, Im not bragging, well maybe I am, maybe Im just proud, but I have been consistently making cheesecakes that do NOT crack. Take your time with a cheesecake, enjoy being in the kitchen, have your ingredients at room temperature before starting and most importantly find your patience- believe me, a cheesecake that is perfect without cracks is deeply gratifying.

I made this for company, its delicious! Highly recommend even if its a little more work.. Its more of a hint of lemon so if you like a lot just add more zest and lemon juice.

My daughters made this for my birthday just yesterday and oh my...it was absolutely delicious and a perfect cheesecake. And it was their first time making one!

This cheesecake is the bomb. Made this for a Christmas dinner party. So light and simply delicious with the lemon and white chocolate. My guests raved and went on and on. One of my guests has daughters who regularly make fabulous cheesecakes. However, she claimed this cheesecake was the best by far she had ever tasted. Trust me, this is the ONLY cheesecake recipe you will ever need. It was just manners listening to all of the praise about how good it was!! Prepare yourself for the compliments. They will come!!!

Made this for family from Norway. It was delicious; I would make it again.

Made this cheesecake for Christmas Day dinner with our future daughter-in-law who hates chocolate. She loved it as did everyone else! Even our family member who usually doesnt indulge in dessert couldnt resist it. Plan to make it for Easter this year too. Didnt change a thing. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Absolutely the best cheesecake Ive made! Great plain but also good with a light fresh raspberry sauce, made with crushed fresh raspberries and a little sugar or stevia.
