New York Cheesecake with Shortbread Crust
"Light, creamy and smooth, this traditional New York cheesecake will melt in your mouth. I rely on a tender change-of-pace shortbread crust instead of graham cracker crust. This recipe takes time, but it's not difficult, and the result is well worth the effort." —Karen Nielson, St. George, Utah
