We misspelled Sandi Roskind's name and we left out one ingredient: the cream. Food Fest judge and Jewish News freelance writer Annabel Cohen made the cake from the published recipe and it came out perfectly. But, in good faith to our readers and our Food Fest winner, we re-publish the correct recipe here: SANDI'S CREAMY CHEESE CAKE (From Sandi Roskind) Not as dry and crumbly as New York cheesecake, this killer cake melts in your mouth. Hold on to your hat, this cake uses 2 1/2 pounds of cream cheese. Sandi says you can use lowfat cream cheese if you like and, for variation, you can make this cake with an Oreo cookie crust. Sounds good to me. This cake is big! So it goes a long way. Crust: 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine, softened Filling: 2 1/2 pounds (five 8-ounce packages) cream cheese 1 T. grated lemon peel 2 T. flour 1 3/4 cups sugar 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 5 whole large eggs 2 egg yolks 1/4 cup cream or Rich's Whip Preheat oven to 450F. Combine the crust ingredients in a medium bowl and stir well. Pat this mixture on the bottom and two-thirds up the sides of a 10-inch spring-form pan. Chill until ready to use. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese with grated lemon peel in a large bowl. Beat until smooth. Add flour and beat for 30 seconds more. Add sugar and vanilla and beat anoth- er minute. Add the whole eggs and egg yolks one at a time and beat until each one is just incorporated. Mix in the cream. Pour the batter into the prepared crust and bake for 10 min- utes. Reduce heat to 250F and bake for 1 hour more. If the top begins to burn, cover with a loose sheet of alu- minum foil. Remove cake from the oven and cool. Chill at least 3 hours before serving (overnight is better). Makes 20 or more servings. TT
