Cheesecake (family recipe!)

This is the only cheesecake recipe I’ve ever used, because it’s just about perfect. While I can’t eat it anymore, I’m excited to share it with you! You’ll either want to use a springform pan, two store bought crusts, or cut the recipe in half. Best made the day or morning before to allow for
