These cheesecake squares were a bit too expensive to make. I think I could find a cheaper recipe that tastes just as good.

I'm not sure what happened, but my cheesecake squares didn't set properly. They were still delicious, but they were a bit too runny.

These cheesecake squares were a bit too tart for my taste. I think I would have liked them more if the lemon flavor was a bit more subtle.

I thought these cheesecake squares were just okay. I think I would have liked them more if the lemon flavor was stronger.

I had a hard time finding graham cracker crumbs, so I used crushed Oreos instead. They worked great and the cheesecake squares turned out delicious.

These cheesecake squares were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.
