No-Bake Lime Cheesecake image

Being from the Sunshine State, I love any recipe containing citrus. This one, featuring lime, is quick to mix up and disappears almost as fast. Substitute orange juice, zest and slices for the lime to get another great cheesecake variation.

This cheesecake was a disaster! The filling was too runny and the crust was too thick. I had to throw the whole thing away. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This cheesecake is alright. The filling is a bit too dense for my taste, but the lime flavor is nice. The crust is also a bit too thick. Overall, it's not a bad cheesecake, but it's not my favorite.

I was really disappointed with this cheesecake. The filling was very dense and not creamy at all. The lime flavor was also very weak. The crust was also very thick and dry. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This cheesecake was just okay. The filling was a bit too dense for my taste, and the lime flavor was not as strong as I would have liked. The crust was also a bit too thick. I would not make this cheesecake again.

This cheesecake was a big hit at my dinner party! Everyone loved the creamy lime filling and the graham cracker crust. The only downside was that it was a bit difficult to cut into neat slices, but that's probably because I didn't let it chill long e

I am a huge fan of no-bake cheesecakes, and the lime flavor in this one was very refreshing. The lime zest really brightened up this dessert. However, the filling was a bit too thick for my taste. I prefer a cheesecake with a creamier filling.

Not bad! I made it for a family gathering and it was a hit. The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the crust was nice and crispy. However, I did find the filling to be a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll try using less sugar.
