    Delicious! I don't like cheesecake, if I do eat it, it is only to eat the crust. When I saw Nigella Lawson make this, I just knew it would be good. This is the only cheesecake I actually eat. I made this for my family and it was a huge hit. I make this 3-4 times a week and It never lasts 20 minutes. The only thing I do different is omit the cherry jam and lemon juice. This recipe is very fast and easy. I'm always tempted to tell people it's my own recipe but I never do. This recipe is officially my only comfort food of choice. Thank you Nigella.

    This is my favorite cheesecake. It's easy, quick and tastes great. Everyone loves it. Good with cherries on top as well as lemon curd.

    Growing up I was not allergic to eggs so I know the joys of eating an egg mcmuffin, fresh homemade pasta, lemon bars and best of all ...cheesecake.
    I have tried all the ones with the gelatin but have never been truly satisfied until now. I have come to terms that I will never eat another piece of baked cheesecake but this recipe is pretty darn close. I dont think I can come any closer. My sincerest and deeply appreciated thanks to Nigella. She's my lifesaver. Now I can make my cheesecake and eat it to.

    I made this cheesecake and took it to work, everyone loved it! I used cherry pie filling for the topping. I was surprised at how quick and easy it was to make.

    I've made this several times now, for various guests. Each time, I get rave reviews and the cheesecake is finished without even crumbs left. I love that it tastes divine but honestly takes no effort or time (or tricky cooking! at all. Only thing I would warn is to spray the bottom of your tin--the crust does stick (especially if you make it overnight and can break apart when trying to remove pieces.

    I needed a fast cheesecake, too - one I could put together while my 8 month old son was napping. This worked wonderfully! I had to make myself stop tasting the cream filling so there would be something left for the pie! I listened to the reviewer who added the lemon zest and subtracted a tablespoon of sugar in the crust and I was glad for that. Also, for the top, I had some blackberries, so I cooked them down a little with some honey and orange flower water, and used that instead of the black cherry conserve. It rocked and I was thrilled!

    This was so luscious and lovely! It's very creamy and smooth, and so easy to make. I've always baked my cheesecakes, so I am grateful to Nigella for showing me that I can make a delicious cheesecake that doesn't require baking. It's wonderful!
