New York Italian Style Cheesecake image

This recipe was given to me by my Italian mother-in-law. It is the type of crustless cheesecake that is sold in Italian bakeries in New York. I usually make it with whole-milk ricotta which is creamier than low fat. This is not a diet item! You can add fresh fruit topping if you desire.

This New York Italian-style cheesecake is a real showstopper! It's creamy, decadent, and has the perfect balance of sweetness and tang. I topped mine with fresh berries and a dollop of whipped cream, and it was absolutely divine.
