    This cheesecake was one of the appetizers I served at our family Christmas Eve gathering. Everyone loved it. It looked so nice on a holiday platter surrounded with crackers. Another keeper, thanks Giada.

    This was a BIG Hit at my holiday party. I didn't remember to add the Olive Oil when serving but it didn't need it. This dish was so surprising to everyone one since it had a sweetness they weren't expecting. This was very easy. I made it 2 days in advance. It was superb!
    Thanks Giada!

    Excellent. It was a big hit at my holiday party. I am making it again for Christmas Eve. I even ordered the 4 1/2" springform pan just for this recipe. It was worth it.

    This is exceptional. I made it for a party following the recipe exactly. My guests loved it and asked for the recipe. I served it with small bread rounds rather than crackers.

    I had this at a party last night and had to ask who made it and where the recipe came from! It was AWSOME! Very light and creamy with a delicious flavor! I've got the recipe now and will try it soon. My friend said that she doubled it to fit a slightly larger spring form pan. I know this will be a hit anywhere I take it! Thanks, Giada.

    I made this for company coming over last night. Thank god I tasted it before I served it. OMG it tasted so eggy! I followed the recipe EXACTLY, made it the day before, and chilled it overnight. When I took it out and we tried it on a cracker, it tasted so disgusting! We didn't even serve it to our guests. The concept of this recipe is good, but the eggs are too much. If you make it, tread cautiously on the eggs, and leave them out. It won't fall apart and the taste will be good.

    I couldn't find basil at the store (it's very out of season in New England at this time of year! so I substituted thyme instead. I also didn't have a 4.5 inch springform pan so I used two smaller ramekins instead. I cooked them a bit too long, but they still tasted good - definitely a nice fancier take on cheese & crackers. I'll make this recipe again!
