This was great - very high, light and fluffy for a cheesecake. It also looks so pretty. You need 2 packages of the 3oz lady fingers rather than one but other than that, no changes. Maybe it was because I made it at Christmas time, but all of the grocery stores had lady fingers in the bakery section, so I had no problem finding them.

If you have a hard time finding lady fingers in your area, try this for your crust. 1 cup AP flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp lemon juice, 1 egg yolk and 1/4 cup butter. Mix crust press into springform pan with wax paper. Bake at 450 for 6-8 minutes.

I made the cheese cake, looks great. The only problem was it called for 1 3oz pkg of ladyfingers, no way you need at least 2 to cover/place around pan.

Pan size was not accurate. Cheesecake was 1 to 1 1/2 inches above pan. Cooking time needed to be increased, but had to cover cheesecake to prevent to much browning. Lady Finger were impossible to find and those made at home are not consistent enough in size to make this recipe. Save yourself the trouble and just put in a graham cracker crust if a gourmet bakery is not in your area!

I made this cheesecake for friends and it was sooooo good. My friend remarked that it was "too good". A wonderful cheesecake and one that I will definitely make again.
