Hartner's Cheesecake
- Ready In:
- 1hr 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Yields:
-
2 cheesecakes
ingredients
- graham cracker crumbs
- 3 lbs cream cheese
- 13 ounces powdered sugar
- 3⁄4 cup whipping cream
- 2 cups egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
directions
- All ingredients should be at room temperature.
- Grease two cheesecake pans with vegetable shortening and line pans with graham crackers crumbs.
- Using a paddle, not a wire whip, cream together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and salt. Slowly add the egg yolks. Lastly, add in the unwhipped whipping cream and vanilla. Mix only until blended; do not over-beat. Mixture will be quite thin.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 60-75 minutes until a light brown top. You may place the pans inside a second pan filled with water to allow for a creamier, moister cake, but not necessary. Remove from oven and allow to cool until edges pull away from pan (about 1/2 hour) then remove from pans.

My passions: faith, family, food, and anything family history related. Almost nothing I like more than to chase headstones of my dearly departed ancestors. I've been working on a family cookbook for almost 2 years. (Need to figure out how I want to actually print it.) Enjoy learning about how what I grew up eating relates to my ancestors from Croatia and Alsace primarily. Enjoy following and forming new traditions within the walls of my home.
Some would say I lead a very boring and mundane life. I would say it's just what I ordered. I have the opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom - which is what I truly love. Feel it's the best calling anyone could ever have. I've truly been blessed!
