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

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The crust was too crumbly and the cheesecake was a bit too dense.

The cheesecake was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still very good. I would recommend using a lighter cream cheese next time.

I'm not usually a big fan of cheesecake, but this one changed my mind. The ricotta cheese gives it a light and fluffy texture, and the chocolate flavor is divine.
