These were a bit of a disappointment for me since they didn't come out looking like the picture. My fruit sank to the bottom to dress them up a bit I put strawberry jam on top of each. People seemed to like them well enough at the dinner party but no one raved and no ate seconds. The recipe was easy enough to follow and like others suggested I didn't pre bake the crust so they were pretty easy to cut.

This is just wonderful and most definitely the most frequently requested dessert for every family event. I find when I cook the bottom crust for 5/8 minutes and then follow the rest of the recipe, it's just perfect. I also use a SPRING FORM pan, and man what a difference that made. I put the strawberry (or our favorite IS raspberry) spread in a circle and then cut through with a knife like I was making up 8 slices...then I swirl. IT ALWAYS COMES OUT SO PRETTY!!! Let it cool and then I cut the slices very thin and it makes for a party favorite every single time!!

Easy to make. I doubled the filling, as commenters suggested. Definitely need to cover loosely w/tinfoil for half the bake time as it takes much longer to set (a little longer than double the time). I also did not pre-bake the crust, and it was easy to cut. One comment I got was a preference for a stronger cream cheese flavor.

I should've read reviews before hand, I needed a chainsaw to cut the bottom...I'm a beginner, so I may have even chose the wrong size pan, but the cheesecake seemed to take forever to set. Also, the strawberry sank to the bottom, I don't know how to keep it at the top. Was decent, but both myself and the recipe need work!

The cookie bottom gets very hard if pre-baked. The baked cheesecake layer will just fall off, and it is very hard and brittle when cutting it into squares. I think I am not going to bake the cookie layer 1st, or bake it for 5 minutes. The recipe is fine with a 1/2 cup of sugar. Other than that, these were received very well :)

Thanks for the no pre-baking tip. The cookie does get overdone. Cutting the bars is difficult, the hardest part is the first cuttings. What I do is, I use a disposable foil pan with parchment paper lining the bottom and grease on the sides. Prepare the bar cookies as usual. After cooling, put the pan in the freezer to really get the filling to firm up. Then, peel the sides of the foil pan down, using the parchment paper, slide the sheet of cookies out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Now that the cookies are out of the pan, they are much easier to cut. To keep the filling from sticking to the knife when cutting the bars is simple. Use a long knife, (one that is longer than the sheet is wide) so you can just push the knife through the bars without slicing. Prepare the knife by coating with shortening or butter and coating with sugar, this keeps the filling from sticking to the knife. Coat with more sugar as you cut the bars. No need to use more shortening as the knife will already be sticky. Bars come out much neater. Down side, fewer messed up bars for the baker to eat. The shortening and sugar is also a good idea, used on the spoon or scoop when you are using measuring out drop cookies

I made this cheesecake recipe and it came out fantastic. I did not prebake the cookie dough but followed the rest of the recipe as said and when it was all done, I had no problem cutting it up. This is good cheesecake. :)

After reading all the reviews, I made mine as follows: used a little more than 1/2 of the cookie dough mix, did not prebake & doubled the filling. I baked for 50 minutes as that is how long mine took before filling set. They were delicious & got rave reviews. The only problem I had was cutting & getting out of pan. Does anyone know what utensil cuts without breaking up the cheesecake? I tried several & was very frustrated. I took these to a party & don't like to bring baked goods that are sloppy looking. Again, they were delicious, but someone needs to advise how to keep them in shape while cutting. I rated them 5 spoons for taste & ease in making, but the cutting process & appearance was a 3.
