I made this cheesecake in a mini muffin tin and it turned out so cute! The mini cheesecakes were the perfect size for a party.

I'm on a gluten-free diet, so I used a gluten-free graham cracker crust for this cheesecake. It worked perfectly and the cheesecake was delicious.

I'm allergic to cranberries, so I substituted raspberries in this recipe. It turned out great! The raspberries added a delicious tartness to the cheesecake.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out. The crust was too hard and the filling was too soft. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cheesecake was a bit disappointing. The crust was too thick and the filling was too runny. I wouldn't make this again.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect with a less sweet filling.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but this one is an exception. The cranberry-orange filling is tart and tangy, and it pairs perfectly with the creamy cheesecake.
