Amazing, Got Huge kudos for this one , and being that is was my first Real Cheese Cake that was saying something, I will add a bit more jam next time i like a little more strawberry flavor. I also used 2 boxes lowfat cream cheese and 3 regular. Tried to keep flavor and cut some of the cals.

It was a good recipe and easy to make. When I made it, it was very delicious. I think anyone who like to cook should try this recipe. It would be fun to let the kids help you to. :-)

Very easy to make and everyone loved it. I followed someone else's suggestion to heat the jam up slightly in the microwave before adding to top of cheesecake. It was supposed to keep it from sinking into the cheesecake. I had no problems with it sinking.

I have made this twice and it is just superb as how easy it is to do. We like it better plain and then they can use frozen strawberries or blueberries on the top.

I took this for a Christmas ofice party and everyone loved it; they all wanted the recipe. The only thing I think I would do differently was ad more seedless strawberry jam.

I love this recipe, however I did have to double the crust recipe b/c I like it thick, but it turned out wonderful. I first made it for my family on Thanksgiving and it was such a big hit that I had requests to make it again for my family and my in-laws on X-mas!

This cheesecake was simple to make and looked and tasted superb. Everyone had seconds and it looked just like the picture. The strawberry swirls made the presentation spectacular.

This recipe was delicious and everyone loved it, however it did not look like the dessert in the picture! My jam sunk to the bottom, so wasn't marbled. But it tasted delicious!

It was very good, but, honestly, I would have just preferred the plain version with sliced strawberries in juice on top . It looked pretty much like the pictures, but the jam did not give it that much of a strawberry taste. Next time I will stick to Kraft's New York style yummy plain version, which I usually make and which is delicious!

Next time, I will try to make sure the graham crust is thinner than before because I do not like like a lot of crust. I will also try to be more creative with the strawberry jam.
