    I pulled a gingersnap crust recipe from another cheesecake recipe & it was great! I held the orange bits and did not add them to the compote but just used the zest in the filling & compote both & I think this was a good idea (didn't want it to mimic the orange relish they just had w/Thanksgiving dinner. It sure was hard to cut into slices though!

    This is what I did to make it mine. I used a gingergread cookie crust
    and changed the cranberry for black cherry compote. Cherries and
    ginger go great together. I took it to work to add to a pot luck
    and the crew thought it was a beautiful and tasty presentation.
    Thank you for the recipe.

    This cheesecake was wonderful--I didn't change anything in the recipe. I made this for Christmas dinner and my guests LOVED it! I served each slice with a dollop of the cranberry compote beside of it, and the tastes together worked so well--I took a few leftover slices to work the next day and my coworkers raved as well. WONDERFUL recipe!!!!!!!

    Okay, I used teabisquits and orange extract to make the crust and I used light cherry pie filling with homemade whipped topping instead, and it turned out to be a hit. It is delicous. The cheesecake is creamy and smooth, one of the best ones I ever had. My brother in law does not cheesecakes because they are really dry, but this one he just loved, he was impressed. It's a keeper. Oh, one more thing, it does feel very heavy either. You know how some cheesecakes feel like you just ate a pound of cheese, this one is not one of them. and the best part is, it's easy to make.

    The white chocolate makes the cheesecake especially creamy.

    Oh wow! I think I am in heaven. I really enjoyed this recipe. I modified it a little by using a biscotti crust instead of the crust that it called for, and for the topping I covered it with blue berries and made a orange marmalade caramel glaze. It turned out really nice!!! I would suggest it to anyone.
