I made this cheesecake for my vegan friend and she loved it! I used a vegan cream cheese substitute and it turned out perfectly.

I'm allergic to sweet potato, so I substituted pumpkin puree instead. The cheesecake turned out great!

This cheesecake was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found the crust to be a little dry, but the filling was delicious. I would try a different crust recipe next time.

This cheesecake was a little too sweet for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling if you don't like your desserts too sweet.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potato, but I was pleasantly surprised by this cheesecake. It's very light and fluffy, and the sweet potato flavor is subtle.

I've made this cheesecake twice now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet potato and cheesecake is unique and delicious.

This sweet potato cheesecake was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The crust was perfectly crispy, and the filling was creamy and smooth. Everyone loved it!
