my mom said we could make it! yesssssss she just said its gunna be hard to get the crumbs to get up on the pan and stay there like that any tips?
SoccerSwty99, when I prepare the crust instead of using melted butter, the butter is left to sit at room temp until it becomes just slightly softened. Have to work fast in mixing though, and never use hands as it causes the butter to melt quickly, I smooosh the mixture against the sides of the bowl with a large flat wooden spoon. It does help the crust to stick to the pan’s edges a bit better I have found.
My favorite cheesecake version is a similar version as ShearHeaven had posted but I add 1 cup of canned pumpkin, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg & 1/4 teaspoon of ginger to the recipe then top it with whipped cream. This is a great Thankgiving day hit in my home. Once Christmas time arrives they are begging for more here. They freeze soooo well… 😀
