Blood Orange Cheesecake image

A citrus cheesecake that is not too sweet, with the unique taste of blood oranges throughout the filling and the topping. This is my first post, I wanted to pass along a unique recipe that I found elsewhere today. I was looking for a way to use the blood oranges that are plentiful in the grocery store this time of year and have a unique flavour that I just love! My family, including my diabetic mother-in-law really enjoyed this dessert. Original recipe here: http://www.underthehighchair.com/2009/03/blood-orange-cheesecake.html

This cheesecake was a disaster! The crust was too thick and the filling was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

The cheesecake was good, but I think it would have been better with a different type of fruit. The blood orange flavor was a bit too strong for me.

This cheesecake was a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier cheesecake.

The cheesecake was delicious, but the crust was a bit too thick for my liking. Next time, I would use a thinner crust or even a graham cracker crust.

This cheesecake was a bit too tart for my taste, but my friends loved it. The blood orange flavor was very strong, so if you don't like tart desserts, I would recommend using a different type of citrus.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but this was amazing! The blood orange flavor was subtle but still noticeable, and the cheesecake was so creamy and rich. I'll definitely be making this again.
