With Christmas soon upon us I thought it would be nice to post some of my
favorite cheesecakes all taken from my Simply Delicious cooking 2 cookbook.
Have fun, Chef K
Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla, add the flour and mix well. Press into
the bottom of a 10″ spring form pan. Spread the crust with jam.
FILLING: Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add the
eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour evenly over jam.
TOPPING: Combine sugar and cinnamon, toss with sliced apples and spoon over
cream cheese layer. Sprinkle with almonds and bake in a preheated oven at
350 F (180 C) 75 minutes or until golden. Chill 8 hours.
