I wonder why they were so fond of them. Is there a traditional recipe for modern cheesecakes?
knowledge: The main, and thickest layer, consists of a mixture of soft, fresh cheese (typically cream cheese or ricotta), eggs, and sugar; if there is a bottom layer it often consists of a crust or base made from crushed cookies (or digestive biscuits), graham crackers, pastry, or sponge cake.
response: I'm not aware of a traditional recipe but the main layer, which is also the thickest, includes soft, fresh cheese, sugar, and eggs. There can also be a bottom layer that usually is a crushed cookie base or crust or some other things.
