1-1/2 cups of white granulated sugar
4 eggs slightly beaten

I'm going to either make this for my sister-in-law or send her the recipe because she loves cheesecake. I know she'll appreciate this very much. I've been watching you for years & your recipes are always delicious, Thank you for another winner.

[@debi6598]

I love your recipes and old fashion style of cooking and baking. I just modify the recipes and make them Keto. I love Sam's jokes. 😁

Cheesecake is one of my favorite Desserts, love this recipe!!!

[@Handsthatcook]

Mine too!

[@pattyhill879]

Thanks, Linda. I haven't made this in a while but now I will have to pull out my spring form pan. It is not too sweet and great topped with fresh blueberries or strawberries. Loved having you back!

[@Handsthatcook]

So glad to hear from you Patty!! Hope all is well down there and hope to see you all soon.

[@melodysmith696]

I have always been afraid to make cheesecake! But you have inspired me to finally try!

[@fablife6236]

Thank you for sharing this with us. I will try it!

[@susanaliddell4700]

I can see it now, thank you ms Linda

[@evem4876]

I've made this a few times n yes it's very good but , I need to tell u it's been around for a very long time , it was given to me way over twenty - five yrs ago . I think the reason it's so good is because of the cottage cheese ...👍❤️

[@Handsthatcook]

Of course it's old...but the best!!

[@naomiross7918]

I can not wait to make this for my family and my church family.

[@KillingReal]

Love your ideas and recipes Linda!!!

[@Handsthatcook]

Glad you like them!

[@Fritz0616]

I’m so glad I stumbled *back* upping your channel as I’m a very long time ago subscriber but you know how it goes when you subscribe to a couple hundred channels or at least for me you tend to get lost..lol..anyhow..can’t wait to make this recipe along with many other of your recipes..I’m so grateful you write down each and every recipe in the description of your videos ..I live in NYS, have all my life ..a hour away from Albany.

[@wandamcmorris6255]

I must try it looks heavenly 😋😋!

[@mollysmith6055]

Wow, does this sound good Linda. I'm writing this one down and putting it in my Easter file. That is a holiday we sometimes will have a cheesecake to add to the dessert list (we always have to have lemon meringue pie though). I love how you say 'full strength'. That is just how we refer to those products too. And for the fat-free kind we say 'fake' or 'faux' if we're being fancy, hahaha. I'll get the ingredients for this now if I can find them on sale and freeze them for later, since cheese is fine frozen if you're only baking with it. Thank you, Patty and the unknown New Yorker, for doing the research for this recipe and for sharing it. I can't believe you cut dear Sam such a teeny slice. And boy, was that a good joke, Sam! Don't fuss about that browning, isn't that why some people put on those sour cream toppings before adding the fruit? Hides cracks and whatever else. Thank you both so much for this lovely video. Edit: I also wanted to say that those of us who have Celiac family members can make this safely by just substituting gluten free graham crackers. Such a painless substitution, yay!

[@claudiaengland6716]

It’s good without Graham crackers. I don’t like Graham crackers

[@mslady1230]

@Molly Smith, you have no idea what you’re REALLY celebrating.

[@dsinavich5141]

Hi Linda ! Cheesecake looks delicious ! I will have to try and make it!! Thanks for all your great vlogs!! Take care ! Deborah 🇨🇦🙏

[@kennethschulz1194]

I gots 2 makes this

[@lilaudrey8]

Thanks for the joke!!!!!! Gonna try this!

[@cindytappe6486]

It must be good. This is the most Sam's said since I started watching your program. And the way Sam's going at it that cake won't last long. The Goldilocks Cheese cake. It's just right

[@Just2HepCats]

Raised in NY? ... ;) how'd you get that southern accent 😀❤

[@Handsthatcook]

I've lived in Alabama since the 6th grade

[@ChefVicCuisine]

Bravo on this video! You got a new sub from me! I recently made Cheesecake on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected my fellow chef! 😁

[@tisayoung4339]

I like that you show what happens when you leave it. Can I switch the cottage cheese for ricotta??

[@Handsthatcook]

yes you can!

[@Vintageguy73]

Hey Linda, hello Sam! I had a hound I was training to not eat. Just as o got him trained, he died😢

[@K-ij7ys]
