The cheesecake is lovely, the cake itself is very silky and creamy. I also think you can flavor enhance with lemon peel, orange peel, etc.
I used Giada De Laurentiis's Biscotti Crust rather than the graham cracker crust called for in the recipe and we just loved it. The first words my husband said when he tasted it was it is so creamy.
I am taking some this evening to a chef friend of mine and I know that he will enjoy it. I also would not consider this a True "Ricotta Cheesecake," in the full sense of the word as it only contains 1 cup of ricotta. I would describe it as a N. Y. Style Cheesecake enhanced with ricotta, however, it is still wonderful.
Baking is sometimes a mystery and I wish I knew what went wrong for you.
