Yummy cheesecake, easy to make. I would bake a bit longer than 30 minutes & definitely give it enough time to set.

This was spectacular! I have made it with a couple of variations. I've used Nilla wafer crumbs with peaches and apricot preserves. I've also used this recipe with Oreo crumbs, raspberries and raspberry jam. I make this over and over again and it is always met with wonderful reviews. My next attempt is with strawberries!

I found that it got really soggy, and the crust was too thin.

This recipe was amazing. It was light, not too sweet and not dry. My whole family loved it. This recipe is a winner! I love blueberries, so I will make it again with more blueberries.

This recipe is fantastic! I decided to bake this year for my friends instead of buying presents. We all loved it. I didn't end up using blueberry jam though, I decided to used wildberry jam. It was so yummy and will be making it again very soon.
