My fiance is a New York born and raised Italian. I made this for his birthday (with a graham cracker crust (http://www.recipezaar.com/Graham-Cracker-Cheesecake-Crust-7537) instead of the spongecake due to our tastes. He has always raved about Junior's and his grandmother's cheesecake. After making this cheesecake, I am now the reigning cheesecake queen. Remember to bring all ingredients to room temperature before making, and follow all directions completely. (I am now making a second cake because the first one...disappeared!)

A friend gave me this recipe about 20 years ago. I've made it off and on over the years. Instead of the Sponge Cake Layer, I just do a simple Graham Cracker, sugar, butter crust. It's a lovely super dense cheesecake.

Hey there. I just got an email that my Junior's cheesecake recipe was just deleted off the site because there is a similar one listed....here it is. I am sad to see you have not made it yourself. I made this for Thanksgiving at my parents house last year. The only other dessert that was touched out of 8 desserts was the pumpkin pie and that was by me, I had to have a slice...everyone else ate the cheesecake. Everyone there begged me for the recipe. Imagine that, a gaggle of jewish grandmothers asking the 29 year old tattooed mechanic how to make a cheesecake. The most important part of this cheesecake is to let all the ingredients sit out to get to room temperature before you start. This is VERY IMPORTANT. Also, do not skip any ingredients if you do not have them (like cream of tartar) It may not seem important, but the recipe is exact and the instructions are very clear. I would recommend everyone go out and buy the Junior's cookbook.

I have been making this cheesecake for several years now and everyone that tastes it loves it! However I do cheat to save time and buy a pound cake at the store that I slice up and put it into the bottom of the springform pan. It works like a charm!
