Apple Cheesecake

Of all the cheesecakes I have come to know and love, I think I like apple cheesecake the best. That is to say I like it better than any cheesecake made by Juniors, Veniero's and perhaps even my mother (if not for the fact I got this recipe from her. That said, she might be offended that I don't like her "Famous Cheesecake" better). This apple cheesecake recipe truly is killer.

This was my first time making it and throughout the process I was a bit worried that I might somehow mess it up. Fortunately, it came out a-okay. Its actually a pretty simple recipe and in retrospect seems difficult to get wrong.

I'm not sure that I can emphasize enough how highly I recommend this.
