Cook's Notes

Please follow the directions carefully. It is very important that the cheese cake sit on the oven rack with the door open for 1 hour in the pan of water to let it settle. After 1 hour remove the cake from the oven and refrigerate in the spring form pan for 8 hours to chill completely. You can top the cheese cake when serving with fresh fruits, chocolate or canned fruit filling. Cherry pie filling is always a favorite!
