This is the best cheesecake I have ever made and I constantly get rave reviews every time I make it. I DO have to cook it a bit longer than stated, but I think that's based on my oven. Also, putting the aluminum foil on the sides, and getting it to stick, especially in water, is hard! The crust is perfect, the batter is yummy and the cake is so fantastic. I don't usually make the nutella side-dip because I think this tastes great as is. It's not overly sweet, it's creamy and it feels light. I make it exactly as stated.

Never made a cheesecake before, this one is just fantastic! Light, moist, fluffy, and flavorful. This is the best cheesecake I've ever eaten. I'll never be able to eat a store bought cheesecake again.

Best cheesecake recipe bar none! Delish, easy to make and just the right 'weight' - not too heavy, not too light... perfect balance of those delicate flavors. When the Pie Kitchen features "Giada's Cheesecake" it always draws a crowd and we haven't met anyone yet who doesn't love it.

Every time I make this I get a WOW. Lips smack together with oooh's and aaahs.
It is so delicious. Brings out the Italian in me. Making it for Christmas Eve for our 7
fish Italian meal.

I made this cheesecake for Thanksgiving last year (my first time to ever make a cheesecake and it was the best cheesecake I have ever had! My sister said this has to be my traditional holiday treat from now on :! So easy to do and it tastes delicious! I did have to make one change though & I know it's a major ingredient (because its in the name of the recipe, but I had to make a mascarpone substitute (found recipe online The toasted almond crust sets the stage wonderfully for the creamy cheesecake filling and the nutella really tops off this decadent dessert!

I have made this recipe before and loved it. What I liked about it was the creaminess and lighter cream cheese flavor. It also does not crack. I made it recently and thought I'd try using a lower-fat cream cheese. Although the flavor was great, and no one else noticed, I thought it had a slight graininess that it didn't have with regular cream cheese. It also pulled away from the edge of crust. I served it with a caramel sauce made with maple sugar and homemade pecan pralines. Very good. I plan to make it for Christmas with a berry sauce and will use regular cream cheese.
