It is basically cream cheese with sweetened condensed milk. There is no other flavor. the apple and cinnamon are completely missing from the palate (and I used a little bit extra apple juice). It always seems safe to avoid recipes that call for something like \"frozen condensed apple juice\" as it's usually a way to avoid using quality ingredients. This is no exception. I tried this recipe after tasting an amazing apple\/cinnamon cheesecake at a local restaurant. This version pales and goes in the trash. If you want cheap cheesecake that is overly sweet but lacking substance, this is it. If you actually want good cheesecake look elsewhere. Even the boxed stuff (no bake) beats this crap","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":1,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2014-09-06","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"buster2018"},"reviewBody":"Love this recipe..the best apple cheesecake","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2012-10-16","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"Jaroburk"},"reviewBody":"We thoroughly enjoyed this simple cheesecake recipe!

This was amazing, loved it. The crust just threw it over the top. Served at a gathering at our house and was a hit with everyone.

This was an terrible recipe and typical of the trailer park Taste Recipes submissions. It is basically cream cheese with sweetened condensed milk. There is no other flavor. the apple and cinnamon are completely missing from the palate (and I used a little bit extra apple juice). It always seems safe to avoid recipes that call for something like "frozen condensed apple juice" as it's usually a way to avoid using quality ingredients. This is no exception. I tried this recipe after tasting an amazing apple\/cinnamon cheesecake at a local restaurant. This version pales and goes in the trash. If you want cheap cheesecake that is overly sweet but lacking substance, this is it. If you actually want good cheesecake look elsewhere. Even the boxed stuff (no bake) beats this crap<\/p>","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"09\/13\/2014 06:10","GUID":"7a428b55b29346d9b90e2d9124198836","MemberId":7986208,"Rating":1,"ScreenName":"JohnSFCA","SubmittedDate":"09\/13\/2014 06:10"},{"Comment":"

We thoroughly enjoyed this simple cheesecake recipe! For convenience, I used about 3 cups of my home-canned apple pie filling instead of cooking up the apple topping suggested in the recipe. I also made a caramel sauce to drizzle over the top. It was great with the caramel sauce, but it would've been fine without it, too. This recipe it great for those who need to watch their sugar intake as it is very low in sugar, yet still delicious!<\/p>","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"10\/16\/2012 11:02","GUID":"d51adedac5bc4ea2bddbf16158ac818a","MemberId":6140371,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Jaroburk","SubmittedDate":"10\/16\/2012 11:01"},{"Comment":"

This is probably the easiest cheesecake I've ever made and it received rave reviews from everyone at Thanksgiving.
