Personal Notes:
This is a recipe that has made its way down through our family and now it is available for yours! This came from Beckett Good's Great Grandma (Nanny)'s Personal Cookbook, so she always put in her extra love. She made this cheesecake primarily for the holidays, but it is so delicious you can have it anytime of the year. Very lightweight cake for being a cheesecake. Enjoy from our family to yours!

Kathy Gerhardt, Beckett's Nanny.
