I had a coworker years ago who would make this "cheesecake" for all work functions. I make this myself during summer now, it's a light and fluffy dessert that is also delicious frozen. The amount of confectioners sugar in the "cheesecake" part can be cut back by half and not even be missed. I also add a couple tablespoons of lemon juice to the filling for a little tartness.
