These were not what I expected. The taste and texture are more like pie than cheesecake. They're also very sweet. I like the nuts in the crust and topping. I think the instructions should have said chilled butter, which is much easier to cut into flour than softened butter. If I make these again, I'll use more cream cheese. DH likes them a lot. Made for PAC Fall 09.
