    1 tsp Vanilla
    1 cup Sugar
    4 Eggs
    · Beat ingredients together and pour itno 9" springform pan that has been
    lined with graham cracker crust.
    · Bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees
    · Cool 20 minutes (or less but at least 20 minutes or more has worked better
    for me! The key is "somewhat cool"). Pour on top a mixture of 1 pint sour
    cream, 1/2 cup sugar and l tsp. vanilla. Put back in oven and bake for 10 minutes.
    · The bottom part of the cheesecake should not brown. If it does the oven is
    probably too hot. The whole cake should appear white with a hint of yellow in
    the bottom part of the cake, It will be verrrry creamy, but should not
    separate or fall apart when you cut it. Keep refrigerated.

    Cranberry Marble Cheesecake

    1 bag (12 oz.) fresh cranberries
    3/4 C water
    1/3 C sugar
    1 1/4 C sugar
    2 lbs. cream cheese, at room temperature
    2 tsp. vanilla
    4 eggs
    1 pint sour cream, at room temp

    Crust:
    2 cups crushed graham crackers
    1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
    1/3 cup melted butter

    Preheat oven to 350° F.

    Mix cinnamon and crushed graham crackers together. Add melted butter and mix
    until well blended. Using fingers, press crust mixture into bottom and 2/3 of
    the way up the sides of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake crust for about 6
    minutes until set. Set aside.
    In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries and water. Bring to a boil over
    medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries pop and the
    mixture reduces to 1-1/4 cups, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in
    1/3 cup sugar until dissolved. Pour the mixture through a coarse sieve to strain
    and let the purée cool completely.
    Reduce oven temperature to 300 F degrees.

    In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese with the
    remaining 1 1/4 cups sugar and the vanilla at until smooth. Beat in the eggs one
    at a time, beating until just blended. Stir in the sour cream.

    Spoon half the batter into the prepared pan. Drop 8-10 rounded teaspoons of
    the cranberry puree (about 1/3 of the puree) randomly over the batter. Spoon
    half of the remaining batter evenly over the first layer and dot with half of
    the remaining puree. Repeat with the remaining batter and puree. Try to space
    out the puree so one layer is not directly on top of the puree in another. Take
    a blunt knife and gently swirl it through the batter to distribute the
    cranberry puree, taking care not to disturb the crust.

    Place the pan on a baking sheet and bake in the lower part of the oven for 1
    hour. Turn the oven off and leave the cheesecake in the oven, without openiing
    the door, for 1 hour longer. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool to room
