I have made this cheesecake countless times. I do use it as a base and mix things up a bit. I add different types of chocolates, extracts and or crusts. It has worked for me every time. One of the variations I use is using semi-sweet choco chips in place of the white chocolate and heath candy pieces for the topping with drizzles of caramel on top...yummy!

The carmel and almonds in the crust were outstanding. This made three cheesecakes! But I didn't use a springform pan. Very good recipe!

The recipe is a good one but the cook time and temp are inaccurrate. So anyone who thinks they did something wrong - it's not you. There's 2 lbs of cheese in the recipe. You need at least a 325 degree oven and 1 hour cook time. If you opt for 275, then bake it for 2 hours. At the end of an hour at 325, turn the oven off, crack the door and set the timer for another hour. Refrigerate the cake overnight - then remove from the springform pan. p.s: add freshly ground nutmeg to the blueberry mixture. The nutmeg brings out the flavor of the blueberries. :)

I made this cheesecake and it lasted about 10 minutes! I made a change in the crust, using crushed Oreos and butter, and it was wonderful! My b/f's family is always raving about their friend's cheesecakes and they told me I put his to shame! I was gloating, of course. I drizzled the top of this one with white chocolate instead of the blueberry sauce because not everyone likes blueberries. Wonderful. Can't wait to make again!!! i made it once with Hershey's white chips and they didn't melt, so don't use them, just an FYI!!

I have made this cheesecake several times and it has been devoured each time. The important thing to note is that it must be refrigerated overnight because thickening occurs as it gets COLD, not as it cools in the oven to room temperature. I think the first reviewer did NOT follow the instructions on cooling properly. You must make this recipe the day before it is to be served or it will not be firm enough to cut properly. It also tastes good and looks beautiful without the blueberry topping- substitute drizzled caramel topping as used in the crust.

I made this cheesecake for our church's 4th of July baking contest and won a blue ribbon! It turned out perfectly with the additional 20 minutes in the oven. Very yummy!

This cheesecake was really good. Really rich, but a bit too sweet for my taste. Will definitely make again with less sugar.

This is a fantastic cheesecake recipe. I, too, had to add ten minutes to the cooking time but it was worth the wait. I didn't make the blueberry topping; instead I made a white chocolate ganache. The only other thing I would change would be the crust. I doubled the amount of butter and it still crumbled and wouldn't hold together. Overall, great recipe...definitely a keeper.

Wonderful, I made mini cheesecakes instead of a big one, which worked well. I did find the cheesecake mix to be a little bit to sweet but my husband and I did enjoy them.

This was excellent. I also increased the oven temperature to 300 degrees and kept it in about 10 minutes longer. I found that I had to double the clarified butter to get the crust to a consistency that I could press it into the pan - but it was great. I think I will double the sauce next time - I ran out and had to use pie filling - the sauce is truly worth it. It was quite big so I cut it into slices and froze it - it thawed beautifully. My husband raved about it!

This cheesecake has a great flavor, the white chocolate does not overpower the cheese flavor, but I found the texture to be too dense. Overall my family enjoyed it.

I made this last night and couldn't wait to cut into it this morning.. It is delicious and my family loves it! I baked it for an hour at 275 degrees and it was very loose in the middle. So I turned the temp up to 300 and left it in there for another 20-25 minutes and checked it constantly.. The cheesecake and blueberry sauce is awesome, but my crust came out VERY chewy and even a bit hard in some places.. I'm sure it was something I did to it! Hopefully the crust will be better next time.. Will make this again and again!!

Fantastic. This is my first time baking a whole cheesecake and i couldn't be more pleased. i baked it for my sister's birthday celebration and all her friends loved it and complimented me profusely...(one even cliamed he was going to have a food orgasm haha)I followed the recipe exactly (except I did not have a food processor so I used my blender for the crust) but found that I had to bake it for an extra 20 minutes or so at 300 degrees, then turned off oven and left cake inside to let it cool for about half an hour before opening the door a crack. I let it sit like that for approximately another hour, then took it out and let it sit on the counter for a bit to finish cooling. I did not have time to refrigerate it overnight, but the few hours it had in the fridge was enough. I could not believe it: no cracks (even though I was lazy and did not use a water bath) and no sinking! I smothered some blueberry topping around the border, drizzled on melted white chocolate chips, wrote on it with icing and garnished it with 16 blueberries that I saved, it looked really nice and tasted even better. Oh yeah and I used chocolate graham crackers for the crust, yum! My friends and I are both raving over this cheesecake, look how long this comment is! Excellent recipe, I only wish I could give more than 5 stars! I will definitely be using this recipe again and again! THanks Scott for a great recipe!

There's only one word for this dessert: WOW!!! The only change I make is I use pie filling for the top. I didn't like how the topping turned out the first time I made it, so I changed it and it's still as good as ever! Next time I'm going to change the flavor of the topping for variety. Thanks for this one!!!

Every person at my dinner party (8) raved! Several couldn't believe it was homemade, they were sure it was purchased. (its alot of work, but worth it) The only thing I would add, is the blueberry sauce is so delicious, we ran out before the cake was finished. I would increase the sauce by 50% next time I make it.
