I just love cheesecake....

A really good plain cheesecake, without the lemon flavor. I hate biting into what looks like a plain cheesecake and having it taste like lemon. Now, if it's supposed to be a "Lemon Cheesecake".....I'll like it....I know, strange.

I make a really good German Chocolate Cheesecake and a tasty, rich Peanut Butter Cheesecake.....yum!

Oh! almost forgot...Pumpkin Cheesecake of course!

I've found that as I'm getting older I'm enjoying nice tangy flavours to cut the richness of something like cheesecake or chocolate.

A nice lemon, lime, kumquat or fresh berry cheesecake hits the spot these days. Chocolate and cheesecake for me needs to be really good or it overwhelms me quickly.

My two favorites are crostata ricotta with pine nuts, candied citron and a pasta frolio crust; and a classic "New York" cheesecake with vanilla and lemon zest, a splash of triple sec, in a hazel nut/ vanilla wafer crust.

Funny you asked, because I made a cream cheese pie (graham cracker crust) for dessert tonight and over baked it.

Oh well,

I make a delicious mocha cheesesecake with Kahlua... I use cappuccino candy melts in place of the chocolate, in a basic chocolate cheesecake recipe. In a separate pan, I melt some dark chocolate, add some strong brewed espresso, a can of sweetened condensed milk, some heavy cream, and a splash of Kahlua. This gets swirled into the batter before baking. For the crust, I favor biscotti crumbs mixed with crushed hazelnuts. I use melted white chocolate, dark chocolate, and cappucino melts to decorate the top after it's been cooled, and garnish with chocolate covered espresso beans. Rich and delicious!

My favorite is one my Fiance makes.... Its an Irish Strawberry Cheesecake, I know she found the recipe online somewhere, but it is INCREDIBLE. It has to be made with fresh strawberries and of course only Bailey's Irish Cream works well

Yum!! That sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing this, I'll think I'll try it

I've never tried a "savory" cheesecake. Can anyone give me a good recipe to try. I don't think I've ever disliked anything that had a cream cheese base....

Stilton cheesecakes have been fairly popular here at the restaurant.
Usually served with a port reduction and some fruit.
