    NOTE: This cheesecake is great alone. If you want to embellish it a little: 2 Cups water, 1/2 Cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup Raspberry jam, 1 T cornstarch. 1 Cup FROZEN raspberries. In small saucepan over medium heat, combine water, powdered sugar, jam and cornstarch. Cook and stir until thickened and clear. Stir in frozen raspberries. When cooled, put a spoonful of raspberry topping in center of a slice. Not too much so the real cheesecake will be tasted.
