I have made this recipe for quite a few years, numerous times. It is a favorite. Do not forget to add the 2T melted butter as directed. I have forgotten, then the cheesecake is plain. The butter definately add richness. It is the best cheesecake!

    Start of by reading the directions carefully and chill cake thoroughly and you have yourself a PERFECT NY CHEESECAKE. I messed up the sugar and the butter by adding it all in with the crust and had to start over. This cheesecake was just the texture I was looking for so it was worth it! I made in a Pyrex pie plate and it didn't over-fill as I feared. I did broil a min. too long and had some burnt spots on top, but I picked them off easily with a sharp knife. When we first ate it (after 2 hours chill time) it was a little too creamy and a little too sour creamy in flavor. I used 1/2 cup plain yogurt (short on s. cream) and 1/3 less fat cream cheese. I LOVED that this recipe only took 2 pkg. of cream cheese! The next day the texture was perfection (!) and the flavors had melded completely as well. My father in law really loved this cheesecake, too! Thanks Bengi, for posting. Roxygirl

    Brilliant! My husband has been wanting me to make him baked cheesecake for ages! I finally did it today and picked this recipe because it was from Jeff Smith and the 2 other reviews told me I couldn't pick better! And they were right. For my first baked cheesecake it turned out great and my descerning palleted husband has just enjoyed his piece immensely. So thank you so much for posting this!!! It would have been easier if I had a blender, I had to use both my stick blender and hand mixer.
