This turned out really tasty -- was a hit at Thanksgiving. Cheesecake is so good for events like that because it slivers so nicely into smaller slices (unlike cherry pie, which turns into a mess). Everyone was able to try a bit that way.
I doubled the crust recipe, which helped, but I didn't do a very good job of making a sharp corner at the edges of the pan, so the crust was too thick at the bend. Next time I might just do 1.5x the crust recipe and pay more attention to making the thickness consistent.
It's always a guessing game as to how many ground up cookies will make a crust. I bought a 14oz bag of archway gingersnaps and this was perfect for doubling the recipe to 2 cups.
The marbling was pretty cool, but I think a cup of the leftover white batter was a bit too much to preserve an even blending of orange/white. Next time I'd set aside only 3/4 cup of the white for swirling in at the end.
Highly recommend this recipe.
