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.

- With electric beater, mix cream cheese, sugar, egg yolks, flour, vanilla, and salt. Beat thoroughly and then turn mixer to slowest speed and slowly pour in the cream.
- Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Add to the above mixture and fold the whites in by hand, lightly but thoroughly. Pour mixture into the crumb-lined pan.
- Set pan into shallow pan containing 1 inch hot water and bake at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 1 1/2 hours. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours before serving.

[email protected]This cheesecake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would cut the sugar in the filling by half next time.
