Recipe



Melba Topping: Defrost raspberries (remove metal lid from package and microwave 2 minutes on DEFROST. Remove from package into a dish. Microwave an additional 2 minutes on DEFROST.)

Combine sugar and cornstarch in a 1-quart batter bowl or glass measure. Drain juice from raspberries into sugar mixture and blend with wire whisk. Add cranberry sauce, lemon juice and brandy, if desired. Blend. Microwave 2 minutes on HIGH, or until thickened, stirring once with a wire whisk. Add raspberries and cool before topping cheesecake. YIELD: 1-1/2 cups

Pineapple Topping: Combine sugar and cornstarch in a 4-cup glass measure. Stir in undrained pineapple and lemon juice and microwave on HIGH 2-3 minutes, or until thick. Stir in food coloring. Cool before topping cheesecake. Garnish with mandarin oranges, if desired. YIELD: 1 cup

Strawberry Topping: Arrange fresh strawberry halves over top of cheesecake. Remove frozen strawberries from package and place in a 1-quart batter bowl or glass measure. Microwave on HIGH 2 minutes. Combine cornstarch and sugar in a small dish. Stir in water and blend mixture into strawberries. Microwave 2-3 minutes on HIGH until thickened. If color needs brightening, add 1-2 drops red food color. Cool and pour over cheesecake. YIELD: 1-1/2 cups

Fresh Blueberry Topping: Combine sugar and cornstarch in a 1-quart batter bowl or glass measure. Blend in orange juice and stir in blueberries. Microwave on HIGH 4-5 minutes, or until thickened, stirring once. Cool before topping cheesecake.
