I rarely take time to review recipes, which is really hypocritical since I rely so heavily on others' reviews ... but this soup was DELICIOUS. My children, ages 4, 6, 8 and 18 absolutely INHALED this soup. I printed off some other reviews *planning* to modify the recipe as they suggested but I got distracted and completely forgot to do so --- which means I followed the recipe AS written. I cannot imagine how one could possibly improve on this. So no offense to the kind folks who offered improvements: I'm so completely impressed by this recipe that I see no need to mess with it one iota. Really, really fantastic recipe. Thank you!

White Chocolate Cheesecake with White Chocolate Brandy Sauce

Reviewed: May 15, 2009

This is one of my favorite cheesecakes: SOOO easy to make and so delicious. We served it on Easter Sunday and had an unexpected guest join us. She declined dessert, citing that she was watching her carb intake. But after watching everyone sighing in delight, she asked for a "teeny" slice. And then another ... and another. Then she picked up her plate and literally licked it clean! (I'm not exaggerating!!!) In truth, we all wanted to do the same ;-) I made it with double the white chocolate in the cheesecake batter but followed everything else exactly. Some of the other suggestions (like raspberry ripple or chocolate crust) sound scrumptious but this cake was so already perfect, how can it get any better? Baked it (bottom securely covered and up the sides in tinfoil) IN the water bath = no cracks and smooth as silk. Tried it with the water bath on the rack below and it cracked.
