Divine! Times do not include overnight chilling. Think leftovers could be frozen. And could sub lime juice and zest for lemon, with orange extract instead of lemon extract. If reducing amount, timing needs reducing-4 portions for about 25 minutes.

This cheesecake was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. The crust was also a bit too hard. Overall, it was an okay recipe, but I wouldn't make it again.

This cheesecake was a bit too lemony for my taste, but my husband loved it. The crust was also a bit too crumbly. Overall, it was a good recipe, but I would make a few changes next time.
