"I found this in the Oregonian restaurant request column for Bo's Desserts. It was listed as one of top 10 recipes of 1994. It is a no-fail dessert. I have never had it crack and have given to others when there recipe failed and they loved it. Prep time is a total guess. I make day ahead so can relax. I often half recipe as this makes 2 cheesecakes"
