I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out as good as the pictures. The crust was too crumbly and the filling was too runny.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still pretty good.

This coconut lemon cheesecake is a delightful treat! The combination of flavors is amazing, and the texture is smooth and creamy. I especially love the tangy lemon flavor that cuts through the sweetness of the coconut. This is a definite winner!
