Crust
1-1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup soft butter
1/4 cup sugar

Filling
16 ounces cream cheese
1 cup cream (half & half or milk)
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs separated
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons sifted flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

Berry sauce

Recipe



Combine cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup sugar and press firmly over the bottom and over sides of a 9-inch spring-form pan. Set aside.

Place in blender; cream cheese, cream, vanilla, egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, sifted flour and salt. Blend the cheese mixture well, scraping sides of blender occasionally. In a separate bowl beat the 4 egg whites until stiff, fold into the cheese mixture. Pour into pan over graham crumbs. Bake at 324 degrees for one hour, until set.

When set, remove from oven and cool at room temperature, then refrigerate. When ready to serve, top the cheese cake with berry sauce.

Sauce: Combine berry juice, cornstarch and sugar in a sauce pan and cook over medium heat until thick, then add approximately 2 cups of berries and cook until the cornstarch mixture takes on the color of the berries. Decorate top of cake or serve on the side.
