My 8 year old and I had a lot of fun making this together. It came out pefect, was delicious and very refreshing. I'm so glad I did not buy one from the store containing hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated fats which are a health hazard, can't believe the FDA haven't banned them here yet.

This is the best dessert. Ever. I made this for a family dinner and it was gone almost instantly. It was also the first cheesecake I have ever made and I was surprised at how well it turned out! Months later everyone is raving about it. This is a must try!!!

I love this recipe! I was nervous about making a cheesecake for the first time for Thanksgiving dinner. It turned out beautifully. It looked amazing right out of the oven, and with some whipped cream and lime slices, it looked like it was right out of a magazine. And the taste!! It was the hit of the dinner. Very tart and tasty. Absolutely delicious!! I couldn't find key lime juice, so used regular lime juice instead, and added some lime zest to the graham crust. Otherwise, I followed the recipe to the letter, and it was perfect. Definitely a new favorite!

Ok . . so I modified the heck out of it. I added 1 more pkg of cream cheese (4 total), 1 egg, 1 egg yolk, 1/3 cup sugar and a teaspoon of cornstarch so I would get a higher cheesecake. (I used Nellie and Joes's key lime juice and didnt change the amount). Absolutely wonderful!!!!

This cheesecake is missing something, ... until you add a scoop of 'Cool Whip' to each slice. The thick, creamy cheesecake is very lime-y - however the light, fluffy cool whip balances the texture and the sweetness moderates the lime flavor.

AMAZING. This was my first EVER cheesecake -- I brought it to a party, where it was gone in a flash! I received numerous compliments, including from a former cheesecake-obsessed chef. I used about 1/2 cup key lime juice and added lemon juice up to almost 2/3 cup. I upped the sugar to 1-1/4 cups. I left it in the oven for about an hour after baking, then refrigerated overnight covered in foil. It didn't crack and looked beautiful. I served it with whipped cream but the whipped cream seemed unnecessary.

So good. Just the right amount of lime. I couldn't find key lime juice, so I just used the bottled lime juice. I also used 1/3 fat cream cheese. It cracked a little, but oh well. Tasted awesome.

This gets a 4 because of my changes only! Yum!! I made this 2 days ago for my daughter's 18th birthday. She loved it! I did take some others' advice and added a 4th block [8 oz] of cream cheese. That was a good idea! It was still very tart! Also, I reduced the key lime juice by 1/4 cup. I didn't have any graham cracker crumbs on hand, so I made the crust myself from flour, sugar, a stick of butter and 1 egg yolk. Thanks for the great recipe! :-D

If you are expecting a Cheesecake taste this recipe is NOT for you. It has the texture and look of a cheesecake, but a great lime flavor. This was so perfect on a hot summer day - I didn't change a thing. My fiance HATES cheesecake, so I lied and told him this was a type of Key Lime...he loved it. After devouring his 2nd piece, I confessed to the cheesecake but he told me this was one recipe he wanted on a regular basis! Thank you for sharing! The only thing I will do differently next time is to double the recipe so that it fills a 9" springform - I prefer a deep dish cheesecake.

This was easy to prepare and very refreshing, it's perfect during the hot summer! I will make it again for sure. I used coconut cookies for the crust because that's what I had and significantly less butter, otherwise I stuck to the recipe. Thanks!

I followed the recipe exactly and it went really well at my July 4th cookout! The host actually dropped the entire cake upside down on a chair and everyone still finished the cake. That's how good this recipe is!

I love cheesecake and key lime pie, so this one sounded right up my alley. IT WAS! I followed JAMYEARN and used sweetened condensed milk instead of eggs, cornstarch, and sugar. EASY! 1/2 cup lime juice was just enough and whip cream makes it perfect.

Everyone loved this--especially my husband who has a HUGE sweet tooth. I didn't use the springform pan on my first attempt because some of the reviewers said that it worked in a 9" crust, but I ended up with too much filling so I filled ramekins with the extra filling and baked them--they were also good, but I missed the crust. : ) I LOVE the version from the Cheesecake Factory Restaurant, which is creamier.

Exellent recipe! I baked it a bit longer for a more cakey texture, topped it with Cool Whip and a fresh strawberry. Everyone at the cook-out loved it. Thanks for sharing!

I made it exactly the way the recipe called and i was disappointed. It did not at all have a cheesecake texture, it was more like a cream pie. and didn't have a cheesecake taste either. I won't make this again.

This was awesome. I started to use less key lime juice but tasted the batter and ended up using the full amount and it was the perfect blend of tart and sweet and full of flavor. I made 8 mini tarts as well because I knew I wasn't going to be able to wait until the following day to have some. I also beat the snot out of it with the hand mixer and didn't bother with the pan of water and it turned out beautifully-no cracks. And I licked the bowl clean, raw eggs and all... The only thing I left out was the zest-personal preference-but I made sure to use all the pulp from the limes. Next time I'll use a shortbread crust (not wild about graham) to have a milder flavor so nothing competes with the lime, but it's still a 5 star as it stands. Loved the lighter texture, not the typical ton-of-bricks cheesecake. Thank you, Bluekat, this one's a keeper.

Made it exactly as the recipe stated, and it turned out excellent. I had eight people visiting for dinner, four who had never tried key lime anything, and four who were afficianados. All agreed that this was as good as it gets! I will make this one often.
