This was a great hit the couple of times I served it. Other liqueurs could be substituted for Kahlua, though I guess then you'd have to change the name of the recipe. If desired, you can reduce the fat content a little by using low-fat vanilla wafers, replacing half the light cream cheese with nonfat, and using 1/4 cup fat-free egg substitute in place of 1 of the eggs.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a less sugary filling.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out very creamy. It was more like a dense cake.

This cheesecake is a great way to use up leftover coffee. I also like that it doesn't require any baking.

Overall, I thought this cheesecake was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I had some trouble getting the cheesecake out of the pan. I think I should have let it cool for longer before trying to remove it.

The crust was a bit too crumbly for my liking. I would have preferred a more solid crust.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I still enjoyed this cheesecake. The chocolate flavor is strong enough to balance out the coffee flavor.
