As a teacher who has lived in eight different towns and taught in 11 schools in three provinces, I have sampled a multitude of staff room goodies and collected many recipes. The one for this delightful cheesecake has traveled with me since my second school. It's an excellent brunch item.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I might try using a different recipe next time.

Easy to follow recipe and the cheesecake turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a bit less sugar in the cheesecake filling. It was a bit too sweet for my taste.

This cheesecake was amazing! The crust was perfectly flaky and the cheesecake filling was smooth and creamy. The apples added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the cheesecake. I will definitely be making this again!

A bit too sweet for my taste, but overall a good recipe. The cheesecake was very rich and creamy, and the apples added a nice tartness. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
