I love cheesecake, and this was an easy and very tasty version. It had just the right amount of pumpkin pie flavor. After reading the previous reviews that the crust fell apart, I added more butter to the crust and didn't have any trouble keeping the crust together when cutting.

We really enjoyed this recipe, I agree with the last comment that the crust was too crumbly. Even though it would be a bit higher in calories, I would use regular butter or margerine and a little more of it. I would also bake and cool the crust instead of just refrigerating it. I also like my cheesecake a little thicker so I would make it in a smaller pan, perhaps a 9 inch square pan.

Nobody guessed it was low fat. Tasted good - no problems with the crust that were mentioned in another review. I liked it better with whipped cream in place of the nut.
Nobody would have guessed this was such a low fat recipe. Very good and eash to make. I used whipped cream on top instead of nuts.

This was a big hit. The only issue I had was that my crust fell appart. Next time I will be using a little more butter. Also, we are not fans of walnuts. So, we used pecans.

I had high hopes for this recipe but it was a disaster. It tasted all right...it wasn't too sweet which was good, but when I tried to take the bars out of the pan, the cake and crust would separate and the cheesecake was still too moist for my liking. I don't think I'll try these again.
