Vanilla Chai Cheesecake image

This recipe is from the Oregon Chai website. I LOVE Oregon Chai- because of course I am from Oregon- but its great really! If you don't have Oregon Chai substitute another brand like TAZO. I haven't tried this yet but wanted to post it so I don't loose it! Cooking time includes crust.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out very well. It was too dense and the flavor was a bit off.

The texture of the cheesecake was a bit grainy, but the flavor was still very good. I think I might have overmixed the batter.
