    Really easy and really tasty. Have made this for Christmas dinner for the past two years and will make again this. I'm not one for puds but this is light and not too sweet! Yummy!

    Looks & sounds delicious - but an awful lot of cheese & cream for 2 people. I've seen cheesecakes that are supposed to serve 12 with less! Think I'd make it go a bit further.

    Lovely recipe! I only had digestives instead of ginger nuts so I added 1tsp of ground ginger to the biscuit mix and a tablespoon of the ginger syrup from the jar and one piece of finely chopped stem ginger. I also thought 8 pieces of stem ginger in the topping was too much so I used 3 and that was plenty. Other than that it was rich and delicious, I loved it! (oh and it doesn't feed only 2, it's definitely more like 6-8 portions)

    Brilliant cheese cake, only used half the recipe for two people and had plenty to go round. Used low fat ingredients and tasted wonderful.
