SUBMITTED BY:

"The dessert, Molly notes, is another tried-and-true family favorite. 'My mother made this scrumptious dessert for years,' she says. 'It's creamy and satisfying, and folks always ask for the recipe.'"

Yummy. I used vanilla extract instead of almond, because that's what I had. I also used 1/3 fat cream cheese, and 1/4 cup egg beaters instead of the egg, and 1/3 cup splenda since I'm watching calories, and my father-in-law is diabetic. Delicious. I didn't make the topping since I didn't have the ingredients, and instead just made a raspberry topping with some frozen berries I had on hand. I would love to try this with the topping though. I usually add lemon to my cheesecake. This did not need it. It was perfect just the way it was. A keeper for sure! I doubled the recipe and served for dessert after Christmas dinner.

This was so easy to do and turned out just great! I did add a crust though. I had some leftover Nilla wafers, so I made a crust out of them. Topped with blackberries. Yum!

Wow!!!... I cheated a little bit and made a chocolate wafer crust... and boy am I glad I did... ummm...I was in heaven! I crushed enough chocolate wafers to make 1 1/2 cups and mixed it with about 5 Tbsp of melted butter and 2 Tbsp sugar... I also added a little bit of graham cracker crumbs until I got the right consistency for a crust... I had to bake it a little longer after I added the sour cream topping- about 15 min total- because it was still jiggly in the middle... oh, I also used a glass bread pan that I sprayed with cooking spray and was able to cut it into 8 nice sized pieces after it was done and cooled from the fridge... topped it with a cloud of whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel, and sprinkled toffee pieces and nut topping... to die for!!!!!

This was an amazing cheesecake. I used fat-free cream cheese and splenda, and it still tasted great.

Yummy is all I can say. I did add vanilla extract instead of almond, also did not use the topping, but instead made a raspberry compote to top it with. Thank-you for the recipe!

This small cheesecake is every bit as rich and dense as its large New York-style counterpart! We don't like crust on cheesecake, anyway, because it tends to overpower the flavor of the cake, so I never use one when making cheesecake. I have made this smaller version many times, using vanilla extract instead of almond, when my husband and I just want a bite or two of cheesecake. The four small servings are just enough to satisfy and I don't have to make a huge dessert (easier on our waistlines, too!). I have two mini springform pans (about a 4 1/2-inch and a 6-inch). The 6-inch pan is roomy enough to accommodate the cheesecake and the sour cream topping, but the 4 1/2-inch is not. When made in the smaller pan, we end up with plain ol' cheesecake, but that's OK - we like that, too, and either size is delicious!
