I'm allergic to strawberries, so I substituted raspberries in this recipe. It turned out great!

This cheesecake is way too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out right. The crust was too crumbly and the filling was too dense.

This cheesecake was a disaster. The crust was too hard and the filling was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

I've made this cheesecake several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The crust is the perfect combination of crunchy and chewy, and the filling is smooth and creamy.

This cheesecake was a huge hit at my party! The combination of strawberries and amaretto was perfect, and the cheesecake itself was creamy and delicious. I will definitely be making this again.
