...who throws a bomb in a Cheesecake Factory!”

Maybe somebody that only like New York original cheesecake or none at all? Wasn’t us, our family likes it all. Just really weird.

My favorite/quick recipe when I get a craving for NY style cheesecake...for pressure cooker

For The Crust

1 tsp soft butter(for greasing pan...in my case, glass bowl that fits in round pressure cooker)

1/2 cup finely crushed vanilla wafers(prefer taste over graham cracker)

1 TBL melted butter

For The Filling

16 ounces regular cream cheese

3/4 cup sugar(recipe called for 1/2, but I like it a bit sweeter)

2 eggs

1 TBL squeezed lemon juice

1 TSP lemon zest

1 TSP orange zest(I've substituted with just a bit of OJ)

1 TSP vanilla

1 TBL sour cream

1 TBL cornstarch

Touch of rum

No explosives

(do not over-mix ingredients, BTW)

Tent/cover with foil(keeps the water off it)

Add trivet/2 cups of water/place cheesecake in cooker with prepared foil strip(piece of foil folded several times, ending up 1-2 inches wide)

Cook at high pressure for 15 min./let pressure naturally release(my electric pressure cooker takes about 7 more min. in the cooker)

Let set up over-night.

No muss, no fuss, no loss of limbs.
