Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise "I've made this cheesecake every holiday season for years, it's amazing," says scrgrl75. "People that don't like eggnog LOVE it! The only thing I do differently is I use crushed ginger snap cookies for the crust instead of graham crackers." "I wouldn't change a thing," according to Erica Troxel Procter. "I put a little nutmeg on top before I cooked it. It was a hit. Very creamy and delicious!" "My whole family thinks this is the best dessert ever," raves Janice James. "Made it exactly as the recipe says and served it with whipped cream. My food processor is too small to make it in, so I used my hand mixer."
