This is an old favourite recipe. I can't believe I haven't already posted it over here. I hope that you will enjoy this creamy cheesecake that is not overly sweet. Equally lovely served plain or with fresh fruit, berries or whipped cream. Please note: The cookie crumbs can easily be changed in this recipe to accommodate personal taste preferences.
