THE BEST HOMEMADE CHEESECAKE
THE BEST HOMEMADE CHEESECAKE
The Best Homemade Cheesecake - get the secret for the lightest and fluffiest cheesecake ever!
I've been making this cheesecake for years. The recipe came from a parent when my Mom taught school. This is truly The Best Homemade Cheesecake recipe on the planet! Chicken Legs says this is the best dessert that I make. He said other desserts are good, but this is the best!
What makes it so great? It is super light and fluffy. How does it get that way? The egg yolks are beaten in with the cream cheese and then the whipped egg whites are folded into the batter. That makes all the difference.
I took this cheesecake down to my parent's house for Christmas. I hadn't made it in a long time, and I won't be waiting so long to make it again. It tastes amazing! The cheesecake can be made ahead of time and frozen until you are ready to serve it.
