I made many cheesecakes and this by far is the best! I really love the lemon curd.

This was the most amazing cheesecake I have ever had. We actually used Trefoil Girl Scout cookies for the crust which I think made it even better. The lemon curd on top I could have drank by the glass. I highly recommend!!
