Creamy Cheesecake Creamy Cheesecake
Personally, I do not make the crust or use a spring form pan. I just use a deep dish sized frozen crust. Its very important you let this cool slowly, otherwise the top will crack. It's just visual though, will still taste just great! radial -

Creamy Cheesecake Creamy Cheesecake
I remember when we were still living in the states both my mom and I loved going into NYC, to spend the day shopping at Macy’s, Bloomingdales, etc :). During the day we would stop over at this coffee shop named Chock full o’ Nuts to enjoy a great cup of coffee. 🙂 They had these big booths that you could sit in and relax for a while. I always loved having dessert my absolute favorite was their Cheesecake. They had the Cheesecake on the counter in a large glass cake stand, yum yum!! I’m not even sure if they made the cheesecake or they just ordered it from some other bakery…:) (I was 14 at the time I was interested in going shopping not finding out if they baked the cake or not hahhaha). Ohhhh my to be honest it was delicious!!! each bite was wonderful that creamy texture uhhhh, I always looked forward to going into the city this was a 3 times a month to shopping spree with mom and indulge that great piece of Cheesecake.Now, I know Cheesecakes are suppose to be eaten during Summer, but I like doing things a bit differently, enjoying food all year round. 🙂 This recipe needs no baking so in about 3 to 4 hours depending on your refrigerator it’s ready to eat! 🙂

Chocolate Cheesecake Chocolate Cheesecake
This cheesecake is a easy to put together cheesecake. I skipped the water bath but protected the cheesecake some with the foil and baking sheet. To further prevent or close small cracks I cover the cheesecake on the cooling baking pan for an hour. It turns out deliciously rich and creamy!
