It was nice, but could have been better. Not enough lemon flavour and the texture wasn't smooth as the chocolate basque cheesecake I usually make.

It tasted good and not too sweet. I added one lemon juice and chilled it for an hour before serving. It can be hard to whisk the cream cheese, you can microwave to soften it.
