A Recipe for Tastiness: Blender Cheesecake

We used to make the recipe to follow for my father to take to work during special occasions. It came from a contribution by a Mr. William Boyer to the Dutch cookbook, Eet Smakelijk–which apparently means “to eat well and with taste”–passed down through my mother’s side of the family in Michigan. This blender cheesecake is a creamy, rich dessert. In fact, it was such a hit with my father’s co-workers that they began requesting we make at least two of them each time they planned office festivities, eager to indulge in what had become a traditional, periodic treat.

I hope you have a similarly delicious experience with this recipe as well:

-Crumb Crust

– 2 (8 oz. each) packages of cream cheese, softened and cut into pieces
