I haven't really encountered a cheese cake I don't like but what I hate are ones that are lightened up with meringue and has the texture almost like jello.

Wow! Stilton cheese cake sounds interesting - perhaps a little too cheesy for me. Ill stick to my favorite fresh strawberry cheese cake - yum

I like an "old school" Lindy's cheesecake. 5 packs of cream cheese in a 9" cake, a lemon-hinted shortbread cookie type crust, and real Bing cherries (dark black/purple) done up for a topping. Just the right hints of lemon and orange oil or rind, and that will kick the butt off any contemporary cheesecake, I'm tellin' ya!

For savory cheesecakes, I used to make a smoked salmon savory cheesecake which went over well. No crust, made with cream cheese and ricotta, heavy cream, smoked salmon, fresh dill, eggs, chives, whatnot, and a sour cream topping. Not overbaked, and served with good crackers or toasted bread. The options are unlimited, just find yourself a good "base" recipe for the custard, and put together whatever combinations appeal to you.

Stilton cheesecake sounds much better though!

Used to make chocolate cheesecake with chocolate icebox cookie base, caramel and combo of dark and semisweet chocolate. Then I found 30 year old recipe for 3-layer cheesecake. Bottom layer is dark brownie like, second layer milk chocolate cheesecake, top layar plain cheesecake.

Never looked at another recipe. This one not only tastes great, it looks like a million bucks.
