I know you‘re probably referring to a dessert-y cheesecake, but I have an awesome recipe for an appetizer cheesecake…it’s gorgonzola cheesecake and it’s fantastic! I have made it several times for different gatherings and it’s always a hit. Let me know if anyone would like the recipe.
I would love the recipe for that appetizer cheesecake. It sounds great!!

Please post the recipe for the Gorgonzola cheesecake. It sounds wonderful with some nice red wine for an appetizer.
No pressure…your cheese is ready! Here’s the recipe:

1 T. CHOPPED GARLIC
1 T. DRY BASIL

CAREFULLY REMOVE SKINS FROM ROASTED GARLIC CLOVES.
PLACE ROASTED GARLIC AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE PAN AT EQUAL DISTANCES.
BAKE FOR APPROX. 1 HOUR UNTIL INTERNAL TEMPERATURE OF 160 OR THE CAKE SPRINGS BACK WHEN LIGHTLY JIGGLED. ALLOW TO COOL ON COUNTER FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR.

Did you know in NY the cheesecakes do not have a bottom crust. They serve them like a slice of cheese. When baked the bottom gets hard like the sides and its really delicous.
Key lime sounds great. Im on Atkins diet so any sweet I can make with splenda and cheese I can eat. I make a cheese cake small each week to pick at and I alternate with Magnolia Pie.

Greeneyedlady, have you ever been to Juniors in Brooklyn? Is it still there?
My son is attending Johnson & Wales in Charlotte, NC. It is a culinary university. He makes a cheesecake from scratch to die for!
WarriorPrincess-Is he single? Just kidding!
Greeneyedlady-What is Magnolia pie?
Magnolia Pie is my favorite, I bake it several times a week and give them to everyone. Im baking one for Verizon Thursday as they fixed me phone.
Its a custard pie.
