• Servings: 1
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup white sugar
• 1 egg, beaten

• 2 1/2 pounds cream cheese, softened

• 5 eggs
• 2 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Recipe

• preheat oven to 400 degrees f (200 degrees c). lightly coat a 10 inch springform pan with spray oil. note: you could use a 9x13 inch pan instead.
• to make the crust: combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1/2 cup butter or margarine. spread to the edges of the pan. prick all over with a fork, then bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees f (200 degrees c). allow to cool.
• increase oven temperature to 475 degrees f (245 degrees c). in a large bowl, combine cream cheese, 1 3/4 cups sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, 5 eggs and the yolks and mix thoroughly. add cream and mix only enough to blend.
• pour filling over crust and bake for 10 minutes at 475 degrees f (245 degrees c). reduce temperature to 200 degrees f (95 degrees c) and continue to bake for one hour. turn oven off, but leave cake in for another hour. don't worry if it looks a little jiggly in the center.
• chill overnight. this is imperative! if desired, top with your favorite fruit or serve plain.
