Damn, I wish I'd found and read this thread before I made the cheesecake

I had a few questions in my mind while I was making it - such as the fact that we can't get Sugar Twin in the UK, so could I just use all Splenda (which I did), does the cheesecake freeze well (this particular one won't because it's gone in the bin) etc etc - and they've been answered here.

However, I also discovered that it's NOT 2 x 1/2lbs of cream cheese, but TWO AND A HALF POUNDS OF CREAM CHEESE I did look at the amount a couple of times, but thought I had read it correctly, obviously not

Could this be why my cheesecake has come out looking and tasting very similar to a gigantic mock danish??!!!

Which brings me on to one more question (which I don't think has been answered here) but could I use marscapone rather than the cream cheese?? - the reason is that I prefer the sweeter tasting mascarpone to the rather salty cream cheese (philadelphia brand) - and I often use it when I make a mock danish.
