with a nice thick graham cracker crust. It needs to be tall. Not something that looks like a slice of pie. It's called cheesecake for a reason.

but I will skip the cracker crust. It should be thick, creamy and have a nice golden rind.

I either make traditional NY Cheesecake with a homemade berry sauce (just cooked down berries, slightly sweetened and then chilled) or a lemon cheesecake w/ raspberry sauce. Also make a pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving which is quite good as well.

I had a friend who had a few cheesecake shops in Rockland County, NY. Then he got rid of them to go work for his dad's law firm.

....and she's very much like this Mary Ann. Sweet, nice....and a damn good cook, too. I, on the other hand, have a name similar to Ginger, but I'm no beauty queen!

Is it just me, or does it look like Dawn Wells (Mary Ann) is nudging Bob Denver in the back of the knees?!

And, btw, I'm making a keto cheesecake for my birthday, in 8 days.
