Cheesecake
.....And with cherries on top
For as long as I can remember this has been my mom's company dessert. (She got the recipe from her mom, Carol) She always made it with blueberries on top. Mmmm! I can still remember crushing graham crackers when I was little and graduating to baking the whole thing. Now I'm married to someone who loves cherries so we do cherries. Which by the way, the particular cheesecake pictured was for his birthday. Enjoy!

Beautiful photo! I may switch to doing my cheesecakes in a deep dish pie plate, as you did. I have a springform pan, but I can never figure out how to get the cheesecake successfully from the removable bottom to a platter.
I made this recipe a couple of weeks ago. Yummy! My husband especially liked it. Thanks for sharing it. :-)
