These cheesecake squares were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of rhubarb, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did! The cheesecake squares were amazing. The rhubarb flavor was subtle, but it added a nice tartness to the cheesecake.

This is my new favorite cheesecake recipe! The rhubarb adds a wonderful tartness that balances out the sweetness of the cheesecake. And the crust is so buttery and flaky.

The cheesecake filling was a little too soft for my taste, but the flavor was great. I'll try baking it for a few minutes longer next time.

The cheesecake squares were delicious, but I found the crust to be a bit too crumbly. I think I'll try a different crust recipe next time.

This rhubarb cheesecake squares recipe was a hit at my family gathering. The tangy rhubarb and creamy cheesecake filling were the perfect combination, and the graham cracker crust added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again!
