Outstanding cheesecake! I made this for my daughter's birthday, since she is a cappaccino lover. After her first bite she said "Mmmm, Mom, this rivals The Cheesecake Factory's". I used chocolate grahams for the crust and mini chocolate chips. I needed to bake it an extra 5 minutes. It was very smooth and creamy and the top didn't even crack! Thanks, Yooper!

    I made only one fourth of this recipe, using a 2 1/2 cup pan with a removable bottom. It came out delicious. My husband and I will fight over it, but I'll get the most because I'm sneakier. I am so glad I didn't make the full recipe. All I need at this stage in life is to eat 1 1/2 pounds of cream cheese by myself.

    WOW! DELICIOUS! Thank you! I cut the recipe to 3 servings (I only had one egg in the fridge) and baked it in an 8 inch cake pan for 25 minutes. This made a short 2 inch high cake (I did it by mistake, but the short little thing was cute!). Then I covered the top and sides with a thin layer of chocolate ganache YUM! A trick to free your cake from pans that are not springform is to criss-cross 4 long strips of parchment paper in the pan (both sides of each strip should be hanging over the edges of the pan)and press your crust right on top of them. Follow whatever recipe your using, and cool in the fridge for the time specified. When its time to take it out of the pan, wiggle and shimmy both ends (one with each hand) of each strip. Then hold the ends of two close by strips (two ends in each hand) and lift the cake out (have your serving plate close by!). If you have some extra hands in the kitchen, they can grab the other strips Sounds weird, but it works! Thanks for the great recipe yooper!!

    This is a delicious cheesecake recipe, I've made it twice and forgot to rate it both times! Very easy to make and the taste is divine. A definite keeper in my books!

    I was asked to take a dessert to a dinner party and this turned out great. I used Light Hot Chocolate powder in the crust instead of sugar, 2 packs light cream cheese and 2 regular and fat-free sour cream instead of cream. I forgot to add the flour and the texture was perfect! I didn't have a springform pan and made it in a rectangular glass dish. When it was completely cooled down, I cut it into little squares and arranged it on a serving platter. With a potato peeler I shaved beautiful chocolate curls off a chocolate bar - it looked and tasted stunning!

    Awesome! I made this for my husband's birthday, and it was a huge hit! I followed the recipe, using espresso powder and mini chocolate chips, and garnished the slices with bittersweet Chocolate Curls. I did bake just a few minutes longer. Fantastic cheesecake--thanks for posting the recipe!

    YUM! I made a chocolate crust, because I only had chocolate grahams in the house. This is a rich sinfully delicious dessert. The chocolate curls on top made a great presentation. I will keep this keeper in my back pocket, Thanks for a great recipe and happy birthday to your sister.

    Great cheesecake! I found that 40 minutes was long enough for the bake time. The top got a little bit more browned than I like. I easily could have made two pies, there was alot of batter left over. I'll making this again.

    I agree with other reviewers that this tastes best after a day or two in the fridge. This is an easy cheesecake and my first ever to not crack...so that alone earns a five star rating. I used coffee instead of espresso and it tasted great. I topped mine with grated chocolate. Yum!

    Fabulous cheesecake! I only had English Toffee flavored cappucino mix, so I used that. Turned out great! It was a big hit! I always bake my cheesecakes @ 275 for an hour or so, depending on the size. And in a water bath. I multiplied the recipe and made 6 at once, since the freeze for months. Thanks!
