INSTRUCTIONS
Recipe by: St. Louis Post-Dispatch 3/24/97 Preheat oven to 300
degrees. Coat a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray or
lightly brush with vegetable oil. In a food processor, combine cereal
and 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar. Process until fine crumbs form. Place
crumb mixture in prepared pan; tilt and rotate the pan to coat the
bottom and sides with crumbs. Tap the pan on the counter so that the
crumbs are evenly distributed. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl,
beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add 1 1/4 cups
sugar, egg yolks, vanilla and salt. Beat until smooth. With mixer at
low speed, gradually add yogurt and flour, beating until smooth.
(Alternately, you can blend all ingredients in a food processor.)In a
large clean mixing bowl and with clean beaters, beat egg whites until
soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, whipping
until stiff but not dry peaks form. With a rubber spatula, fold the
beaten whites into the cream cheese mixture. Turn batter into
prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the cheesecake is
puffed and the top is pale golden and dry to the touch. Turn off the
oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door closed for 30
minutes. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let cool completely
on a wire rack. Remove the springform pan sides. Refrigerate, loosely
covered with plastic wrap, for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days.
Shortly before serving, arrange strawberries over the cheesecake.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
