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
