This is Norval's standard cheesecake; everything in this book is foolproof. I made it 2023-02-14 with a blueberry-mandarin glaze, it was yummy.

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 325 (using my convection oven, you run it a little lower.)
  2. Mix the crust ingredients (I use graham cracker crumbs) in the Cuisinart
  3. Grease the pan with butter. Put the crumbs in and shake to make it even then press it down with a flat bottomed e.g. lowball glass.
  4. Dust out the Cuisinart bowl so there are no crumbs
  5. Use 1 extra egg. Separate the eggs: put the whites in the big mixmaster bowl, put the yolks in the Cuisinart bowl.
  6. Beat the whites until stiff peaks.
  7. Add the rest of the ingredients to the Cuisinart bowl and process until totally smooth and pour in with the whites.
  8. Fold with a rubber scraper until all the egg white chunks lumps disappear, pour into the pan
  9. Bake for 1:20 at 325
  10. Let sit in the oven for another half hour.
