I will have to try this. Really, all your recipes are intriguing and my hat is off to you! By the way, I thought for YEARS that cracks in cheesecakes were inevitable. So I always made my vanilla cheesecake and then topped it with cherries just to hide the (I thought) inevitable crack. But the last couple times I've done a couple of new things. First, when the timer goes off, I open the oven and run a sharp knife all the way around between the edge of the cheesecake and the springform pan. Then I let the cake cool for about 15-20 min. in the oven so it cools very gently. And as it starts to pull away from the pan as it cools, it's not STUCK to the pan and this seems to be working.

LOL! It's WONDERFUL! The last time I baked it, I made a couple of minor changes that seemed to work better for my tastes, but the basic foundation is still there. I took one to work today and the other therapists went crazy over this; one of them gave me the most awesome compliment I've ever received about something I've cooked - she said "This tastes like it should be on the dessert menu of a really nice restaurant." :) Thanks for posting it for us to try. It's become a family favorite, and I suspect it will be requested by my workmates again, too!

It was absolutely awesome! Next time (yes, there will be a next time) I will put even more lemongrass and lime into the batter. I don't love dessicated coconut, so I substituted that out of the base. I added too much of the batter to the melted chocolate, so it didn't swirl as nicely as yours, but this is easily ammended. For the main course I had done Bill Granger's Chicken Burgers with Lemongrass and Lime (also absolutely awesome - he is a genius and I can not wait for him to come to England!), and this complemented the dish perfectly. Thanks so much! Dear Elissa,
