I've made this recipe several times from a Kraft cookbook I've had for years. I just made it for a family member's birthday and it went over great! If you like a NY style cheesecake this is the one. Thanks for posting it!

This recipe is really easy to make. Taste great, like NewYork cheesecake, rich and creamy just the way my family likes it! It was a hit! Thanks for sharing.
