I love cheesecake and there are so many wonderful recipes out there for cheesecakes, but you just can't beat this one for quick and easy preparation. This makes a very good, basic cheesecake and in my opinion is delicious. Our favorite topping is fresh strawberries, sliced and tossed with a small amount of sugar, then chilled until a natural syrup forms. YUM!!! Thanks for sharing, MizzNezz!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
