  • “Loved this recipe!I used two premade pie crusts to make a double batch.I only needed to make a batch and a half of the filling to make it work.I also added carmel on top of the apples…amazing!”

  • “Oh what a treat this was!My sister and I went apple picking and got some Macintosh apples.. A WHOLE LOT OF THEM!This is the first thing we made and it was excellent!!!The filling was creamy like cheesecake but the apples on top along with the crust just sent it over the top for us!Need I say delicious?Well ok then DELICIOUS!!!Thank you for sharing your recipe with us Dojemi!Linda”

  • “This was my very first cheesecake!It was amazing!My bf is now constantly harassing me to make it again.Thanks for making my first cheesecake a success.”

  • “This was a very good cheesecake recipe.I made it as written except I didn’t have any shortening, so I used another tablespoon of butter.Thank you for posting this recipe.”

  • “This turned out absolutely delicious… a perfect cheesecake with a wonderful layer of apples on top.I’ve tried a similar recipe which had a graham cracker crust, but I think this crust is better because it doesn’t compete with the flavor of the apples.This definitely goes into my favorites. I can’t wait to make it again actually ! Not important, but the only things I did differently from the instructions was… I added the sugar and cinnamon to the apples before baking the apples 15 minutes… and I cut the apples into thin slices and then into smaller, more bite-size pieces. “

  • “This is a great tasting cheesecake.You shouldn’t need to follow normal precautions for cheesecakes to prevent cracking – this is quite wet when it cooks.I found it needed to cook for 10+ minutes longer than recommended.”
