Cheesecake Recipes!

 

        This file contains Cheesecake Recipes from the Nestle's Toll House 
cookbook and Kraft's Philadelphia Cream Cheese Cookbook.

        It is amazing to realize that the Cream Cheese is strictly an American 
invention and was only used for sandwiches and snack until the mid 1920's when 
the Original Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cake was published to promote the use of 
this cheese in cooking.  It was first published in 1928 and I will include a 
copy of the original here.  As you go through the file, remember it all 
started with this simple recipe.

Bake at 325 degrees F., 10 minutes.

Combine cream cheese, sugar, juice, peel and vanilla, mixing on medium speed 
of electric mixer until well blended.  Add egg yolks, one at a time, mixing 
well after each addition.  Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into 
cream cheese mixture.  Pour over crust.  Bake at 300 degrees F., 55 minutes.  
Loosen rim of pan; cool before removing rim of pan.  Chill.  Top with cherry 
pie filling or fresh fruit, if desired.

This simple recipe was the start of one of the biggest companies in the world 
today.  I hope that you enjoy many of the recipes that are contained in this
