This is WONDERFUL!! So light and fluffy! Almost not like a cheesecake at all in that way. I loved the flavour of this. This was my first time using a cheesecake mix and now I ask myself... where have they been all my life?? :) The next time I make this, I am looking forward to being able to share it with family. I will be proud to share this at the next reunion of my fiance's family! Thank you for sharing this!

Who would think 'dessert in a box' could taste so good. This is really good and would also make for the perfect recipe for those unexpected times when you need dessert in a hurry - no ones going to guess how easy! Made this using cherry pie filler - a favorite with cheesecake at our house. Going to be sure to have those ingredients on hand. Thank you for posting!

As a full time working mom, I find my passion to unwind in cooking. My favorite cookbook is a compilation of when my son was in kindergarten and they each submitted a recipe and then gave their version of what ingredients should be used. Did you know that 3 whole pineapples could go right into a dessert?!?!? Its hilarious!
My family cannot believe how much time I actually do spend surfing Recipezaar! But I can honestly say, they eagerly await the final results!
