Sue testifies this is a "never fail" cheesecake and always a real crowd-pleaser. We're sure you'll receive rave reviews as well! You might want to use a 15 ounce can of cherry, or blueberry, pie filling instead of making the cherry glaze.
1/2 cup fine zwieback or grahm craker crumbs
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 eggs, seperated
1 cup sugar
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cherry Glaze (below)
CHERRY GLAZE
1 (16-ounce) can pitted tart red cherries, drained and liquid reserved
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Few drops red food color, if desired
