WOW! i KNOW MARC! I THINK HIS PLACE IS RIGHT DOWN THE STREET FROM THE "HITCHING POST". I MOVED TO FLORIDA A FEW YEARS AGO SO I FORGET THE AREA A LITTLE. I STILL THINK CHEESECAKE FACTORY HAS GREAT CHEESECAKE. THE BEST I EVER HAD WAS FROM A PLACE IN THE CITY...FORGET THE NAME...THERE WAS A LINE DOWN THE BLOCK TO GET ONE OF THEIR CHEESCAKES!
michele lorie i believe went out of business.there is a store angelo's cheesecakes in hamilton nj which distributes cakes from brooklyn cheesecake co which are very good and available in many varieties.
Michele Lorie in Trenton did go out of business. And I haven't been able to eat cheesecake since . I still can't believe they didn't sell the business. Every time I went there, there was a line around the corner (and sometimes they were just closed because they ran out of cheesecakes)!
If I want the absolutely greatest cheesecake that I have ever had in my life I ask my wife to make one...no one, and I mean no one, can touch her cheesecake.
If I want the second best cheesecake, and one that my wife absolutely loves, I would go to Veniero's. I have been going there for 17 years. As a matter of fact, I was there about three weeks ago.
Pricey?
No way.
I remember years ago the Park Ridge Diner in Park Ridge NJ had the best cheesecake. Now that was when I was in my older teens...so dunno anymore. People would order them 2 at a time there they were so yummy!
Wow, we got some sweet tooth addicts on this board. 11 requests for the recipe
I do mine with a huge dollop of Nutella on top for each slice. That is at your discretion. but cripes, it is good. And only 7,935 calories per bite
1 1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup of sugar
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup of softened butter
2 1/2 pounds of softened cream cheese
1 3/4 cups white sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (or half and half if you want a fat reduction).
How to prepare...
1. Preheat oven to 400, and coat 10 inch pan with spray oil or butter (I prefer butter).
2. To make the crust: Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1/2 cup butter or margarine. Spread to the edges of the pan. Prick all over with a fork, then bake 15 minutes at 400, and allow it to cool.
3. Increase oven temperature to 475. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, 1 3/4 cups sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, 5 eggs and the yolks and mix until everything is combined thoroughly. Add cream and mix only enough to blend.
4. Pour filling over crust and bake for 10 minutes at 475. Reduce temperature to 200 and continue to bake for one hour. Turn oven off but leave cake in for another hour with the oven door closed.
5. Cake MUST be chilled overnight. If not, it has a very loose texture.
