I like cheesecake, but my husband absolutely loves it! His favorite is from the Cheesecake Factory, probably anything that has chocolate in it! I've never made a cheesecake before, but would sure like to give it a try! I've heard about Junior's and how people rave about it, so I have no doubt this cookbook has some great recipes in it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO YUM! I LOVE cheesecake! This time of the year, my favorite is pumpkin cheesecake!

Honestly, I'm not a cheesecake fan. I used to hate it, then I liked it, then I ate at the Cheesecake Factory, which made me hate it again. But, a local bagel shop/bakery has a special pumpkin cheesecake through November that it is selling for $42. For a cheesecake! So I'd love to get a recipe and pretend that I'll undercut their sales.

I love white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. YUM!

My favorite is just a simple New York style cheesecake with fresh strawberries. Though I have been known to inhale a turtle cheesecake on occasion. ;)

I love cheesecake and have actually never made it from scratch (even though I want to remedy that soon...). My favorite flavor would have to be key lime. I am not a huge chocolate fan and love all things citrus. I could TOTALLY put this cookbook to good use!!

Mmmm... cheesecake! Now this is a cookbook that I NEED to have! My favorite cheesecake is TGIFridays vanilla bean cheesecake. To.die.for. I hope I win!

So I was gonna say Cherry cheesecake-you know with the sweet gooey cherries on top, but then I saw raspberry swirl....mmmmmm, I might have a new favorite here!

I have just recently started eating cheesecake. I really enjoy the strawberry cheesecake.
They look too intimidating to make though. The whole "water bath" thing freaks me out!
Posted by: Tracy | October 14, 2008 at 05:16 PM
Any kind of cheesecake is my favorite! lol I have never tried to make my own YET.
Posted by: ColleenM | October 14, 2008 at 05:28 PM
I love cheesecake! I'm simple and my personal favorite is regular cheesecake topped with cherries. Yum!
Posted by: Stephanie | October 14, 2008 at 05:28 PM
I (heart) cheesecake. I made a turtle cheesecake with dulce de leche and it was phenomenal!

I live in Brooklyn, New York. Home of Juniors Cheesecake. It is definately the best cheeesecake in the world. Yes, my mother-in-law makes a great cheesecake, but no one is as good as Juniors. If I was planning to have Juniors Cheesecake, I wouldn't eat lunch because it is a heavy type cheesecake (rather than a light Italian cheesecake).

I've seen this book at the library and it is fantastic! I love any cheesecake with fruit!
Posted by: food librarian | October 14, 2008 at 09:53 PM
This may sound boring, by my all time favorite cheesecake is a plain old, classic New York cheesecake with a slighly brown top. I love the purity of it, where the untempered cheesecake flavor is the star of the show.
Posted by: Tara | October 14, 2008 at 09:55 PM
Maybe I shouldn't admit this, but my favorite kind of cheesecake is the no-bake kind made with cream cheese, a pre-made gram cracker crust, and canned cherries...I know, I know, I should get out more.
Posted by: Janell | October 14, 2008 at 10:15 PM
I've never made cheese cake myself and only had it once. Then it was a lemon one and it was oh soooooooooo delicious! :)
