Since I'm a big fan of cheese cake and trying to keep my weight down, I'm so glad someone came up with a low fat recipe. I really enjoyed it. But, just one thing...I bought two packages of cream cheese instead of three in error. Oops! Well, I decided to experiment and use the two packages to see how it would turn out. It still came out pretty good. Love the lemon zest flavor. Will make this again using three packages of cream cheese next to see what teh difference in taste and texture will be.

The texture was lumpy and weird. It was rather bland and definitely obvious that it was low fat. I would not recommend this unless you are really trying to avoid fat. It wasn't that good and I wouldn't use this recipe again.

I'm a swede who fell in love with cheesecake when I lived in California for a year. I've been trying to make the lovely cheesecakes I remembered and make it a little more nutrious and this was absolutely perfecy. I served it at a birthday party and it was all gone in seconds.

Very good cheesecake, I was out of vanilla extract so I used orange extract and instead of the fresh fruit I used a can of light cherry pie filling. It was great, My kids loved it and each had two pieces!!
