PHILLY CHEESECAKE
Just plain-old, extra good cheesecake like the ones from New York and Philly. You may cover the cake with a layer of strawberries, cherries, etc. but, in my opinion, this cake is very, very good and easily stands on its own. The fruit just distracts from its great flavor and texture.

BAKED PHILLY CHEESECAKE
I've used this easy (and relatively inexpensive) recipe for years & gotten rave reviews. If they only knew it was so simple to make! Feel free to use a ready-made graham cracker crust. You can even carefully place it in a regular pie dish. We won't tell! =^..^=

Steps:
- 1. Put the cream cheese into a large mixing bowl & set out for about an hour. (You don't really need a bowl this large, but the deeper, the better since the filling likes to fly around the kitchen when you mix it up.) When the time is up, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2. In a different microwave-proof medium-sized bowl, melt the butter for about 30 seconds. Add the graham cracker crumbs & sugar.
- 3. Stir them together with a fork & put into a pie dish, savings a few bits of crumbs for decorating at Step #7. Using your fingers (or a spoon, if you want), press the crumbs up the side of the pie dish. Then flatten the bottom of the crust. Set aside.
- 4. Going back to the bowl with the softened cream cheese, the recipe says to beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla, THEN add the eggs and beat again. (As you can see from the photo, I have a hard time following directions.)
- 5. This is what it looks like when you do it as directed. =^..^=
- 6. Whichever way you did it, beat the filling ingredients with a mixer until well-blended.
- 7. Spoon into the prepared pie crust. If you remembered to hold back a few crumbs, sprinkle them on the top. (If you forgot, it's OK. The cheese cake will still be delicious. Promise!)
- 8. Bake at 350 degrees F. for around 30-40 minutes, or until the center is almost set. Cool, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- 9. Top with fruit and/or whipped cream, if desired.
Superb Philly Cheesesteak: A Culinary Symphony of Flavors
Indulge in the delectable culinary masterpiece that is the Philly Cheesesteak, a symphony of flavors and textures that will captivate your taste buds. To achieve sandwich nirvana, heed these essential tips:- Bread Nirvana: Opt for a crusty and chewy bread, preferably an Italian hoagie roll. Split the roll lengthwise, exposing its soft interior, and toast it to golden-crisp bliss.
- Steak Excellence: Utilize thinly sliced ribeye steak, renowned for its rich marbling and succulent tenderness. Cook the steak to your desired donWiiess, allowing it to rest and reabsorb its mouthwatering juices.
- Cheese Symphony: Embrace the classic combination of American and Cheez Whiz, melting them together to create a gooey, stretchy, and utterly satisfying cheese pull. Feel free to experiment with other cheeses, such as provolone, mozzarella, or a sharp cheddar, to suit your taste.
- Aromatic Symphony: Sautéed onions are the aromatic heart of this sandwich. Cook them until beautifully caramelised, exuding sweetness and depth of flavour.
- Harmonious Accoutrements: Incorporate sautéed mushrooms, if desired, for an umami-rich, meaty boost. Add roasted red peppers for a vibrant pop of colour and a hint of tangy sweetness.
Culinary Harmony: A Symphony of Flavors
When these elements come together, the Philly Cheesesteak transcends the realm of ordinary sandwiches, becoming an iconic culinary masterpiece. The crisp bread, the juicy steak, the gooey cheese, the caramelised onions, and the harmonious accompaniments form a symphony of flavours and textures that will leave you craving more. Enjoy your Philly Cheesesteak with a side of your choice, whether it be crispy fries, refreshing coleslaw, or a tangy pickle. This sandwich is a perfect canvas for experimentation, allowing you to adjust toppings and flavours to suit your palate. Embrace the culinary journey and discover the perfect combination that resonates with your taste buds.
