I love this recipe. It turned out so great. It is very similar to the 6 Carb cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory. I wasn't all too sure how to make the graham cracker crust but it turned out ok. My husband absolutely loved it! It did initially rise in the oven, but fell once I placed it in the fridge.
