    I can't recomend this cheesecake highly enough, I made it for a diners club which I run, and now make it for coffee mornings etc. You can vary the fruit, using a tin of mandarin oranges makes the dessert more economical, but is still a wonderful taste combination.

    Over-beating will cause the cheesecake to crack: Beat cream cheese with sugar only until smooth, then proceed with a wooden spoon for the rest of the recipe. Also if you grease the sides of your pan, the cheesecake will not crack, since cracking often happens in the cooling process as the cake pulls away from the sides. It�s been suggested by Yankee friends (who knows cheesecakes better then them?!) of mine that after the 40 minutes you should just switch off the oven and leave it for a couple of hours so set, don�t even open the oven to check, just leave it. Hope that helps.

    This was my first ever "baked" cheesecake and I was delighted with the results as was my family. It didn't last long! I will definitely be making it again and as previous posters have suggested, with other fruits, though raspberries were perfect. Thank you Frouski for that advice - have taken note, as mine was just a little bit soft in the middle, though luckily I was the only one who noticed!

    Nice and easy! 600g cream cheese was too much for us so next time I used 250g tube of quark, 1 egg and halved all other ingredients. Used small loaf tin and baked 45 minutes then left in the oven for about 10 minutes. It looked perfect and tasted even better than the big one!! Also I did it without raspberries and served with stewed plums and apples.

    Delicious, not your typical cheesecake flavour. I used frozen fruits of the forrest and it worked perfectly. The sharp taste contrasted beautifully with the sweetness of the cake and the light and dark colours of the fruit looked stunning. (I also added a tablespoon of Creme de Casis to the sauce to give it an extra kick :)

    I made this last night... ready for Xmas... (not sure if Im able to freeze?). The mixutre was yummy! I used defrosted fruits of the forest and they looked delicious amongst this mixture - I cant wait to try it. My only comment was that my cheezecake looked darker in colour than the picture you show ? I did grease the sides of the container as one suggestion gave - to prevent cracking - and mine certainly remained intact, so maybe this enhanced the colour. The proof will be in the eating... !
