Basic Cheesecake Method And Toppings

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Let cream cheese sit out until it's room temperature, nice and soft.
Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until fluffy.  Add eggs one
at a time (break them into a separate cup - one teensy bit of shell
will ruin everything!) and beat just until mixed.  Add remaining
ingredients and beat just until mixed. Pour into chilled shell and
bake at 325 for  Jam may be melted and poured evenly over the top of
the cooled cake.  Fruits may be arranged on top of a cooled cake, then
covered with a  melted jam glaze.  4 oz chocolate or white chocolate
chips, melted with 2-3 Tbsp butter  and maybe 1 -2 Tbsp whipping cream
(if desired) can be poured on top  of the cooled cake.  For a yogurt or
sour cream topping, cook the cake only 50 minutes,  cool the cake 15
minutes, mix together 1 cup yogurt or sour cream  with 1/4 cup sugar
(regular is OK since this is so liquid) and 1 Tbsp  vanilla or other
flavoring (lemon juice, extract, etc.) raise the  oven temperature to
475 and bake another 10 minutes.  (see also Basic Cheesecake Filling
and Basic Cheesecake Crust)  The Polka Dot Palace BBS 1-201-822-3627.
