In reply to Sheri. Thank you so much for trying my recipe, Sheri! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! I think you could probably put this in a 13 x 9. I'm not sure whether you'd need to increase the recipe or not. You may end up having the stretch the ingredients if you don't increase it and then you may not have quite the same proportions. If you do try it I would love to know how it goes. :)

My whole family LOVED this recipe! So much that my 6 year old grandson wants it for his birthday party on the weekend. Is there a way to make it in a 13×9 pan or similar for a crowd?

No words can describe how good this cheesecake is. I have favorites that I make often and this is now at the top of the list. always requested. This time, it was the star of the show as the dessert coarse of a progressive dinner party.
For the people who have had a texture issue or feel its a bit runny, be sure to dice the apples small as instructed, and I do gently squeeze the cooked apple mixture before I add it to the batter, just to remove the extra liquid.
.Thank you so much for such an incredible cheesecake recipe!

I made this for work and it was a hit. The texture was a bit runny for me with the apples

I’ve made a lot of cheesecakes and I’ve eaten even more. I made this one for Thanksgiving and I have to say, it’s the best cheesecake I’ve ever eaten.

In reply to Kristyn. I'm so glad you ultimately enjoyed it, Kristyn! I'm really not sure how that would work.

I baked this for Thanksgiving, and it’s now been requested for Christmas and every chance we have a potluck.
The only complaint I’ve had, and it was personal preference, was about the mixed texture with the apple pie ribbon in the middle. Do you think it would affect the texture or baking time if I just added the apple pie part on top?

I’ve made a lot of cheesecake in my life. This one’s definitely a keeper. Like any baker I made a couple of small tweaks, like I use 2 large duck eggs instead of three chicken. I get the eggs from a friend, but then just things I do when I make a cheesecake this one’s definitely is one you should try. I’ll be making it several times again.
I make a peach cheesecake when the local peaches are ripe. It’s my friend’s favorite. This one may rival it!

In reply to Dena. Hi Dena! I'm honestly not sure how it would work. It's possible, it will be fine, but I just don't know for sure.

Can I just use a can of apple pie filling for substitute instead of cooking the apples, I’m just trying to cut down the time, it still sounds amazing! Thanks.
