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.

Thanks for the reply Gay. I have no idea what happened with mine.

Maybe sometime down the road, I will try it again. By the way, did you use a water bath? I'm thinking that when I try it again, I'll put the water in a pan under it on another shelf. Glad you and your DH enjoyed it.

 
Yes, Misplaced I placed it in a water bath. Also, let it cool for the additional

30 minutes in the water bath as directed. If you do try it again I hope you have better luck.
