Recipe(tried): Perfect Cheesecake Crust and Cheesecake Recipe - for Sutherland, from Scotland

Desserts - Cheesecakes
A word of warning, this is absolutely the best cheesecake you will ever eat. It is extremely rich and addictive! You can serve it with strawberry, blueberry or chocolate topping if you wish, but we like it plain because of it's velvety texture and how rich it is.

CHEESECAKE

CRUST:
1 cup sifted flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 sticks (5/8 cup) butter
1 egg yolk slightly beaten
1/2 tsp vanilla

1 1/4 cups sugar
3 tbsp flour
1 tsp vanilla

When ready to prepare the cheesecake, roll 1/3 of dough to cover bottom of spring form pan.

Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes, until lightly brown. Cool.

Roll remaining dough into 2 strips 15x 2 1/2-inches long. Grease sides of the springform pan with butter. Press strips onto sides. Fit pan together and place in refrigerator.

CHEESECAKE FILLING:

Add eggs and egg yolks one at a time, beating after each addition.
