Cheesecake

Here is a selection.[/L] I am currently working my through them!!

I think the ones that need baking in water come out with the best texture. For most of the recipes I double up the base as they are quite stingy and I love a lorra lorra base.

If you search on the site there is a chocolate Nigella one, I made that and couldn't stop thinking about it ever since :P

your link doesn't work tilly :-(
I want the Nigella one!!! :-P

oops sorry, here is the chocolate nigella one, I didn't bother withthe chocolate sauce topping and did double the base!

Yum.

THis is the page with a few cheesecake recipes I linked before. More cheesecakes.

I have made one this very evening, you also need with your cheese:

3 eggs
300g creme fraiche
2 tablespoons caster suger
juice of 1 lemon
a little cornflour
cook at 150 for just under an hour so that it is firm on the edges but still a little sof in the midle, switch off the oven and let it cool with the cake in.

and something for your base

You'll more than likely need something to put it in. Preferably round. Hope this helps.

Not cheesecake but ............... my sister sent me this recipe last night: (can't help but think using butter instead of oleo would be tastier)

CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE SQUARES
8 oz cream cheese, softened
4 eggs
1 lb powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 box chocolate cake mix
1 stick margarine, melted
Combine the cake mix, 2 eggs, & margarine--stir until completely mixed--mixture will be like dough. Pat into lightly greased 9 x 13 pan. (Using a piece of waxed paper over the mixture eases spreading.) Mix cream cheese, 2 eggs, the powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl until blended. Pour over the cake in the pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 55 min. Don't overbake--watch closely for final 10 minutes of baking time--toothpick will come out clean and edges will pull slightly away from sides of pan. Cool completely on rack. Cut into bars or squares to serve. I found that "scoring" the warm bars made cutting the cooled bars easier. This is one of those recipes that is somehow greater than the sum of its parts. If you get asked to bring a dessert, I promise you this one will get raves.
