I have made this a couple of times and it was very good. It has just a nice refreshing lime taste and is perfect for a warm weather dessert. Give it a try for your next gathering.

My husband and I love this receipe. I have been making it for a couple of years now. He likes it so much I have to make them two at a time. If you like more kick just add a little more lime each time until you get the desired taste that appeals to your family.

I made this cake for family and friends. They loved it so much, that they ate every last crumb.

This was very tasty, and my kids loved it. However in place of one of the cream cheeses I used key lime flavored tofu, which I do not recommend. Next time I will only use the cream cheese, but probably the fat free. This was a very easy cake to make, not many steps at all. Loved it!!!

My family loved this recipe! I did use 3 tbsps of lime juice instead of what the recipe called for..making the lime stand out more. I will definitely make it again!

Made this for the 4th of July and all the family seemed to really like it, even one of my sister-in-laws liked it and she normally does not like cheesecake.

The recipe turned out well, but should call for key lime juice rather than regular lime juice, and needs at least 3-4 tbsp of juice to make the key lime flavor noticeable.
