Reviews
Except for making my own graham cracker crust I made this recipe as is. It was easy to make and had a really nice texture, the lime wasn't too tart, however the flavor of raw basil was overwhelming. I would make this again but cut the basil in half.
Best low-fat cheesecake ever! I substituted a pecan crust for my GF hubby - he loved it.
