The Perfect Cheesecake

You need a springform pan for this, but cheesecakes are easy to make. The roaster oven cooks the cheesecake with gentle heat by surrounding it with water like the professionals do.

Butter

11⁄2 cups sugar

1⁄2 cup graham cracker crumbs

5 eggs

6 8-ounce packages cream cheese,

1 teaspoon vanilla

room temperature

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Generously butter bottom and sides of 91⁄2 inch springform pan. Sprinkle crumbs evenly over bottom of pan. In a large mixing bowl beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and continue to beat until smooth. Add eggs beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla and lemon juice. Pour into prepared springform pan. Cover springform pan with aluminum foil. (This prevents condensation in roaster from dripping onto cake.) Pour 3 quarts hot water into insert pan. Place spring- form pan on rack and place in roaster. Cover and bake at 325ºF for 11⁄2 hours. Carefully remove and let cool, then refrigerate thoroughly before serving.

Yield: 16 to 20 servings.
