I've made sf cheese cake. I've used the recipe she posted in the cheesecake
thread.
You have told me that you liked it with few crust. I must say that crust was
too much and filling was few. Another thing: crust wasn't very crispy!
Pheraps it must stay more in the fridge!
Taste was very good
What do you think is happened?

I've made some cheesecakes till now. One of them was made with an old recipe
I had: it was very good (for me) because it had a very crispy crust. I have
posted the recipe, if I remember well.

Pandora,

That's a pretty wide and shallow cheese cake, compared to what I'm
familiar with. I thought it was a pizza at first!

They make a larger version for about $10-11. But, the small one takes
me a week to eat, it's so rich.

Do you freeze it when you get home or do you just eat a piece each day until
it's ALL GONE?
I prefer mine almost frozen; DH likes it closer to room temperature --
what's your preference?

Have you had their (TJ'S) French Chocolate Mouse tort/cake?

If you have any inkling of being a chocoholic DO NOT EAT THIS.

What are you saying, "Don't bother eating it because it won't live up to
your expectations"?
or "It will send you over the edge into chocolate-holic-dom"?

Funny, I've never associated eating chocolate with getting really sick, but
DH & I had a lot of chocolate last night and we were both pretty sick this
morning. We need that $20-donut test.

Well, you don't use a whole package of crackers and a whole package of eggs
and flours, etc.
You use only 1-2 cups of crackers and perhaps only 2 eggs; then a package of
cheese.
The cheesecake I made yesterday costed to me only about ?3, because I had
the crackers and the eggs of the cheese cake I made before.
2 eggs= 0,40 eurocents
2 cups of crackers=0,25 eurocents
250 gr cheese=1,50 euro
1/4 cup of butter= 0,20 euro cents
1/2 cup sugar=0,8-0,10 eurocents
Tot= 2,45 ?

yes, you must add work and oven.
BTW, remember that dealer must have his gain and generally this gain is more
than 50%

You have to have a lot of patience to make the pastry crust for this
recipe. It tastes great, but to me it's not worth the hassle. I just
put a piece of parchment paper in the bottom of the pan, and don't make
any crust. If someone else were making the cheesecake for me, I would
ask them to make the crust. <G>

Pandora, sometimes the satisfaction comes from not making it and voila!
"Hey, this is good!"
Just "the hunt" and "the find" becomes another type of satisfaction.

Good question.

From measurements I did on one of my electric ovens, running
1.5 hours at 300 F (a reasonable time and temperature estimate
for a cheesecake, including preheating) used about 1.1
kilowatt hours.

In my area, a KWH costs as much as 18 cents depending on your
total monthly usage (cost per KWH gets more expensive the
more you use).

That makes the cost in this case 19.8 cents.

Hey Dee Dee,
I will definatley have to get that recipe. The only thing
that it contains is Cream Cheese, 1 Large Vanilla pudding package and
almost a full thing of Cool whip. I will get you the exact measurements
as soon as possible-Denise

Oh, my Denise.
I couldn't eat cool whip or vanilla pudding -- I don't know what I was
thinking.
You're nice to think of me -- perhaps there are others who would like it,
though.

LOL! Hey, those are my initials... I am honored! Thank you!

Let me explain that the crust isn't supposed to be crispy in the end.
It's fairly crispy when you take it out of the oven (pre-baked), but it
softens up after the filling is added. That recipe is really meant for
an 8 inch pie plate. If you'd used a smaller pan (yours looks like 10
inches), obviously the filling would have been thicker. Try an 8 inch
pan next time and if you think you need more filling, make more. I
make my cheesecake in springform pans, like you. But it turns out
better (using that recipe) in a pie plate. I double the filling when I
use a springform.

PS: Crust is a real "option" because you can make as much or as little
as you like. However it takes a couple of times to "tweak" the recipe
to your liking. My favorite store bought cheesecake barely has a
crust... it amounts to just a sprinkling of graham crackers sprinkled
on the buttered pan.
