Cheesecake

At the moment, we can't tell you how this turned out, as it's the first time I'm making it and it's still in the oven (and we can't even eat it tonight...), so I will update this tomorrow after we've tried it. However, the recipe is dead simple and looks/smells awesome. Picture below is the cheesecake just before I put it in the oven.


1 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
3 packages (250 g each) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs

Preheat oven to 350F.

Mix crumbs and melted butter or margarine. Press firmly onto the bottom/sides of a 9" pie plate (or onto just the bottom of a 9" spring form pan)

Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time and mix until blended. Pour into crust.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until centre is almost set. Cool completely, then refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight. Garnish with whatever topping(s) suit your fancy and serve.
