  nice and easy but what do you do with the double cream and when do you add it ?.

  600ml double cream seems to make the mixture a bit runny!!!

  Has anyone tried freezing this recipe. Was hoping to make mini ones for my toddler and keep them in the freezer.

  Sorry amendment. 100ml lemon juice to 2 tubs cream cheese(300g per tub) else half the lemon juice.

  I think cheesecakes need a firmer cream cheese like philadelphia, marscapone should work too. I usually add lemon juice as it thickens it and helps it set. Either that or 1 raw egg mixed in, but I prefer lemon juice. Amount of lemon juice depends on amount of cream cheese-I use 100ml to a 300g of cream cheese. And allow to set in fridge either overnight or 4-6 hours as a minimum. HTH!!

  I've made the original recipe before using mascarpone...it didn't set as such but was firm enough to slice. I think creme fraiche may be too runny to use.

  I used creme Fraiche, but didn't add egg whites maybe that's why oh and a didn't chill the base first could that have been the problem. Will try it again as it did look lovely x

  Did you follow all the instructions and ingredients What did you replace for what I did not write this recipe but have made cheese cakes before and sometimes they set and sometimes they dont Try putting on a higher shelf in the fridge and if it still doesnt work then when it comes to serving just spoon into a bowl or glass and put on toppings such as choc sauce,nuts ice cream and call it an Eton Mess! You may like the recipe says use more egg whites as it needs to be in the right ratio for the cream fraiche orcheese whatever.....but i will not bore you with cheese cake science

  I made a wheat-free version by using ginger oatcakes (the Nairns ones that Sainsbury's and Holland & Barrett sell) - it tasted great. Only disadvantage is that the oat cakes are harder to make into crumbs! Another time I tried replacing the lemon juice with orange juice but found that didn't work - orange is not concentrated enough :-(. Great recipe and a good one for making in advance.

  Tried this cheesecake last night, and it was the first cheesecake I had ever made. It was delicious! Very impressed. I doubled the mixtire, and also added a strawberry small yoghurt, to give it a slight flavour. I will definately be making it again!

  Tried to make a low fat version of this recipie using philedelphia light cream cheese instead and it works! Agree with others on the quantity, will definately need to increase.

  Really easy and quick recipe and tastes delicious! I did 4 mini cheesecakes using tartlet cases instead of one large cake. The quantities were perfect for this and my 2 1/2 year old daughter was delighted to have her own cake! We will definately be making it again!

  Big thumbs up from us. I would say the same about quantities but otherwise this was scrumptious.

  Really yummy - the whole family enjoyed this from 7months-35years. Quick and easy to make - i did melt the butter in a jug in the microwave and add the biscuits which made it a bit quicker. Would agree with comments re. quantity. Will certainly be making it again!!!

  Made this cheescake and the family loved it! I would reccommend using more bisuits and double the amount of the cheese as it was abit thin, apart from that it was lovely
