You’ll want to make this Key lime cheesecake again and again. Cheesecake is perhaps my favorite dish to prepare. This is only one of many versions that are frequently requested. Similar to its more well-known relative, Key lime pie, it is sweet and tart. Typically, I top it with lime slices and whipped cream.
