Aunt Rosie’s Famous Cheesecake

At our local market today, a cheesecake was in the bakery display case with a price tag of $32. WTF? Look at these ingredients – even with the price of everything going up, it’s still not even going to cost half of that to make an even better cheesecake.

Note that this recipe has no spills on it – any spillage is ‘way too good to waste! This is a starred recipe too, but it should be four stars – it’s that good.

I like to put a can of cherries on top with all that syrup/juice they come in.

FYI – the little ‘t’ means teaspoon (looks like a + sign) except when you get to Bake – that means 1 plus hour, not 1 teaspoon hour. Big T is (drum roll) tablespoon.

‘Watch top’ means the top will brown somewhat and maybe split – which is where the cherries come in!
