    I made 3/4 recipe in a 7" pan, substituting granulated white sugar for golden superfine. My oven doesn't get quite that hot, so baking time was 35 min. Maybe it's the coffee I used, but I tasted the coffee batter prior to baking and it was so strong and bitter, I added 2 Tbsp extra sugar, which helped some, but the baked cheesecake was still so intensely flavored, we served it with sweetened whipped cream to balance the flavor. The batters didn't remain distinct in the baked cake, and while the amaretto batter was strongly flavored on its own, we couldn't taste it in the end. I'd consider making this again with half the coffee, and not swirling the batters together, as drizzling the thinner amaretto batter seemed sufficient.
