    This really was delicious- I followed the directions exactly, excluding the peacans, and I used 18 graham crackers; my springform pan was only 9". This was the first time I'd ever used 5 eggs in a cheesecake recipe, it was also the first time I used orange juice! The texture and taste of the cheesecake was spot on. Unlike other cheesecakes, which were delicious but with the help of the added flavors, such as chocolate, fruit, etc., this cake can stand on its own! The crust was light and sugary, offering a nice contrast to the texture and flavor of the cheesecake. I think I will use this cheesecake recipe as a base for all future cheesecakes. Everyone had seconds and the cake was finished. The cake baked beautifully. I baked it in a water bath until the middle was just about done. I shut the oven off; I opened the oven, allowing the cake to cool down slowly to prevent cracking. After it cooled completely, I took it out of the oven and put it in the fridge. It did not crack!

    I couldn't believe how marvelously delicious this cheesecake is! I have made it many times, and it is perfect every time. I also make it without the caramel apple topping, and serve several toppings on the side so that everyone can choose their favorite. Thanks, Miz Paula, for this fantastic recipe! It has become my one-and-only go-to cheesecake recipe!

    This is excellant,I have made this so many times and everytime it comes out great I have made this with the apples carmel sauce. I have also made this and left if plain, then had on the side different toppings of pie fillings - cherry, peach, apples,lemon, which was a HUGE hit.Everyone could pick their favorite topping. I also took a shortcut on the apple carmel topping one time. Use apple pie filling and then carmel ice cream topping drizzled over it and was good.

    Simply the BEST cheesecake I've had in my life! As others posted here, it is a fantastic base cheesecake and the topping possibilites are endless. It would be fantastic with any fresh, seasonal fruit. It was perfectly smooth, creamy, and velvety. This was super thick/deep, and just the right sweetness and tang. Makes a huge cheesecake, perfect for a large party or tons of leftovers. I did bake mine for a full 2 hours, and highly recommend making it a day ahead before you need it to give it a full and complete chill. I added a few pinches of cinnamon to the apples/pecans which gave it a lovely fall flavour. This will definitely be my "go to" cheesecake recipe from now, it truly is perfection.

    FANTASTIC cheesecake. I think it may be the best I ever made. I wish I would have listened to all the reviewers who said the crust ingredients are way too much for this size cheesecake. You ALL were soooooooooo right. Oh, I also had to cook mine for way longer than the recipe states. I kept adding 10 minutes and kept "jiggling" for the test for doneness. But all came out perfect anyhow.

    I served this cheesecake at my granddaughters birthday because her favorite is carrot cake but some in the family don't like carrot cake so I always make something different to go along with the it. I chose this cheesecake because it looked yummy. Now my granddaughters favorite is the cheesecake along with the whole family. Need I say more.
