I used to make (and sell) Blueberry Cheesecake. I simply whip heavy cream and cream cheese together, and top it with blueberry filling. It's the no-bake type of cheesecake but it takes a lot of time to put together.
I have always wanted to make a real cheesecake -- yeah, the type that you bake in an oven. At the same time, I have been nursing this hankering for rich, creamy cheesecake.
Fortunately, Philadelphia Cream Cheese was sold Buy One Get One Free at my local grocery store. I got 4 8-oz bars, yey! I still have a lot of Hershey's Cocoa in my cupboard. And I have yet to fulfill the true purpose of my buying a 9-inch springform pan from Amazon.
Here's what I made: a Chocolate Marble Cheesecake from the Hershey's website. If there's anything I would change in the recipe, it's the use of baine marie. You see, my oven has a mind of its own. I set it to 450F and it goes up to 500! Because of my crazy oven, the cheesecake has cracks... lots of cracks. Thanks to the marbled effect, it's not very noticeable in the picture. Unless you look long enough, aheh! I am so satisfied to finally have my few weeks supply of home made cheesecake.

I love cheesecakes! Twice, my co-workers forced me to bake for them. They said it tasted okay but I'd rather eat someone else's cake. Like this picture... yummm... I bet you can add coffee, too. (I should stop staring at this pic.)
