I have been making this fantastically rich cheesecake for years, mostly by request for parties, showers, and food days. It is always a hit and requested over and over! Super easy and really impressive, it makes people I have way more talent than I do!

My father gave me this recipe years ago to try, and now my son insists I make it for his birthday every year, as I will be doing today. I'm pulling out my tattered recipe for this delicious cheesecake once again
