Granny Barra’s Cheesecake
About This Recipe
“At age 96, our granny pasted away September 2001. She loved this cheesecake because it rises up high and is as light as a feather. She’d lovingly make it for every memeber of our family (because we all loved it) as a special birthday gift. She’s gone, but her love and caring and cheesecake lives on!”

“I’m on a mission to discover the world’s best cheesecake (in my opinion). This one is on the short list.”
“I followed the instructions exactly and ended up with a delicious light and yummy cheesecake that was demolished by my clan!”
“The great thing about this cheesecake is how quickly it comes together in the food processor and it does rise and have a light texture. Having said that I found that the biscuit base went a bit soggy on me the following day and the cheesecake began to weep a little on the bottom. I did substitute full-fat thick yoghurt for sour cream as it isn’t available here which may have made a difference. I also didn’t put any crumbs on top preferring to have a smooth top and I served it with whipped cream and cherries.”
“I made this cheesecake for my FIL when he visited us a few weeks ago.I was so busy that I forgot all about leaving a review.The cheesecake turned out WONDERFUL!I followed the directions exactly and wouldn’t change a thing.I loved the taste of cinnamon in the crust and the texture was light and fluffy, not heavy like most cheesecakes.The whole cheesecake was gone in two days!My FIL even asked if he could take the last two pieces back home with him. Thanks Gingerbee for sharing your Granny’s recipe.This is now a favorite with my family.”
