Recipe
NOTE How simple can a cheesecake be? This cake is simple and delicious,
easy to make and great to eat. Be prepared for lots of praise when you
serve this one! BTW, 3 pounds of cream cheese *IS* correct! That's six 8oz
packages of cream cheese! Me ke aloha, Mary Use a 10 inch springform pan.
In a large bowl beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs,
one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the sour cream and
vanilla and continue to beat until smooth. Pour into a well-buttered
springform pan. Place the pan inside of a larger pan containing 1 inch of
water and bake in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 1 hour. Transfer the
cake to a wire rack and allow to cool for 3 hours. Remove the sides of the
springform pan and refrigerate the cake overnight. Remove the cheesecake
from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving. Sprinkle the top of the cake
with the powdered sugar shortly before serving.
