This was the first time I had made Cheesecake from scratch. My first attempt failed completely. I took some advice and bought an oven thermometer. Come to find out my oven was 100 degrees hotter than what I was setting it on. No wonder my first cheesecake had burned. My second attempt was much better. I did use a water bath. The cheesecake did not crack and was very good. I get request for it pretty often!!

Absolutely Indulgent. I didn't diverge from the recipe at all. My family of 4 ate the whole pan. I will definitely make this one again!!
