The Ultimate Cheesecake for TFF

Ultimate Cheesecake Ala My Guy Ty
I SO SO SO know what my job should really be, forget about my job as an RN, I have a better one. I wanna work in a carnival.. I want to be one of the people like a weight guesserBUT I want to guess Johnson size. I want to guess to within the nearest 1/2 inch. Being the expert at lumpage evaluation, in terms of size, texture, hairiness, and thickness, I could make a fortune.. Wouldnt that be something?? Oh, the fun I could have. The stories I could tell. The johnsons I could evaluate..

Anyway, I know who would have a nice Johnson, and this man knows it to.

I have missed My Guy Ty, his hotness. Why, oh Why, does The buffman always where this smirk when we are together, anyone?

I have been absent at TFF for a while, due to hectic scheduling, life, etc. But I am Back in his hotnesses saddle, and we are gonna have a ride, and Tyler is so freaking grateful, you see he missed me too.

When he saw me coming, we did a little dance,

--Actually I did the dance on the table with heels, and DUH yes a skirt. He loves loves loves to watch me--

made a little love,

and went down tonight.
went down tonight..
Just like old times.
No room for jealousy ladies, however, this is how My Guy Ty always looks after I get through visiting with him.. See that shocked smile. Take it for what its worth.

My FFH said to me the other night on the couch, I am in the mood for something. Oh Yes, I thought, Im gonna get me some, yippee, hee hoho, lets go, marineman. But alas, he said Im craving your cheesecake. OK, headlights stopped flashing, twinges went away, and Ty and I got down to business.

Tyler's Ultimate Cheesecake is Wonderful. If you need a go to cheesecake, this is it! I am telling you, it is fantastic. Freaking fantastic. This is my entry for Tyler Florence Fridays.

Let's begin with the crust. Get some graham crackersand finely grind them. Melt your butter,
and add this to the graham crackers along with some cinnamon.Mix till moistened.
Lightly coat your 8 inch pan(why Ty chose 8 not 9 Ill never know) He's a 9er to me. with spray and press the crumbs into the bottom of the pan and a bit up the sides. Refrigerate for a bit. For your filling, in the bowl of your mixer beat your cream cheese for 1 minute. Add your eggs, then your sugar, and beat until creamy. Add your sour cream, lemon zest and vaniilla.
Batter should be well mixed not overbeaten.
Pour the filling into your crust lined pan
and flatten with spatula. Set your cheesecake pan on aluminum foiland wrap it up the sides. Place it in a roasting pan and pour boiling water 1/2 way up the sides. Place in oven for 45-50 minutes. Cheesecake should still jiggle, so dont over cook. It will firm up(firm up, big boy, firm up, mamas a waiting) after chilling. Let cool in pan for 30 minutes. refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Remove from pan
and serve plain,
oh look how dreamy creamy, Insert Tys joke..I'll give you something to cream bout honey!
oh look at that crust,
or served with your favorite topping,
I chose some fresh strawberries with some sugar I let sit for a bit, and topped it with that.
This is killer.
I love it. FFH loves it.
Truly a great one to try.
And not hard at all (Unlike Ty on his reunion visit with me)
I received an award from Rachel of Rachel vs The Kitchen, you must go meet her if u havent.. She has wonderful, wonderful food!! Thank you for thinking of me!!

My Guy Tys absolutely fantastic drool-worthy, creamy, light, delicious cheesecake ...

    I used to make 'fake' cheese cake when I was younger, you know all slathered in cherries, and more for acts of desperation, but yours puts my Texas 'fake' arse to shame girl! I need to get serious and make one for hubby!

    Oh, btw I need a nurse!

  35. Shut up! I was just thinking last night about how I wanted to make this cheesecake again, only with strawberries instead of the blueberries his original recipe called for. And you did it. ANd I'm so freakin' jealous! I SO want a piece NOW!!!I made this for my MIL's birthday a while back and it's about time for me to make it again...(sigh).

    Oh creamy deliciousness, come to me. Ewww! that sounded gross.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Cheesecake and Tyler - can't get any better than that. Two hunks. Add strawberries and the sky is the limit and it looks like you've gone over the top.

    Also congratulations on the award.
    I just saw the picture of your four on the left - cute kids. How did I miss that before? Well I'm a blonde, so we won't go there.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Haha hilarious! I'm impressed you made your own crust!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  41. That's really an ultimate cheesecake!!!

    And as always, Mr. Guy Ty looks so gorgeous! :D

    ReplyDelete
  42. Good Gawd Woman, where DO you get all those Tyler pix from? LOL. You are such a hoot! I love the fact that your strawberry sauce is light. So many are too thick and syrupy that you get a toothache from all the sugar overload. Looks luscious! *slurp!*

    ReplyDelete
  43. Ah Donna, what would I do without your blog, never change!

    This cheesecake looks SO good, I don't know what looks better, the cheesecake, or the men!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I bet there's none left now for me. I like Cheesecake served plain.
    The TY pix are .... LOL.... I gotta stop and laugh before I could continue to read......
    p.s. Have been wondering what "FFW" could mean......now I got it.

  45. yummmmmmmm... I want some cheesecake... and Tyler Florence :)

    ReplyDelete
  46. MMMMMM...the cheese cake looks absolutely fabulous!! Rich & decadent!
    Exactly like I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I love cheesecake! I haven't made one in a long time. This recipe looks simple and delicious!

    ReplyDelete
  48. I LOVE your new job idea...how wonderfully that would suit you :) Too funny!

    I know I always make mention of not being a huge "sweets fan", but cheesecake is one exception...especially strawberry cheesecake! My family has actually started getting me a cheesecake for my b-day in place of an ordinary b-day cake. I worked a long shift at the hospital yesterday and couldn't decide if I could muster up enough energy to make a trip to the grocery store, but I know I won't be able to stop thinking about this cheesecake until I make it!!! I'm never going to forgive you ;)

    ReplyDelete
  49. oh this looks sinfully good!!! I have a huge weakness for cheesecake!!! yum x 10000000!!

    ReplyDelete
  50. Cheesecake and my thighs don't get along. Too bad for them, I'm going to make this this weekend! :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Cheesecake is meant for gods and goddesses ~ let's indulge!

    ReplyDelete
  52. Mmmmmm cheesecake. Always a hit around my house:)

    ReplyDelete
  53. I am so glad you are back from your TFF hiatus! And with such a banging recipe (pun most certainly intended). I'm sure Ty is glad as well, he must have missed your weekly alone time.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Oh, My goodness! That cheesecake looks so decadent! How can you do this with us?? It's mouth watering! It's a desperation!

    ReplyDelete
  55. That looks super! I've done the water-bath with my cheesecake. I'll have to give it a try.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I don't know how you wouldn't eat this whole thing yourself. I just love cheesecake and I am loving the strawberries as well. Perfection.

    ReplyDelete
  57. p.s. If you ever come to California, I will take you to Mill Valley so you can stalk your guy Ty. ;)

  58. I'm impressed with this cheesecake because of its simplicity. Every day we're bombarded with cheesecake sugar bombs from The Cheesecake Factory and other such places. While I like the sugar bombs as much as anyone else, it's refreshing to see a plan, simple, speaks-for-itself, understated cheesecake, topped simply with a few fruit slices. It's cheesecake at its roots. It's a taste of Brooklyn in everyone's kitchen.

    ReplyDelete
  59. You know _ I don't watch any TV - really. So I've never seen Tyler and get all his recipes via - you! You may convert me back. because I like a good, creamy, rich luscious cheesecake. And I know I'd love that one.

    ReplyDelete
  60. You and I make them different for sure! Looks good and light is what I need sometimes!

    ReplyDelete
  61. I'm glad you're back on TFF this week : ) I've been eyeing this cheesecake for awhile. I'm glad to hear that it's good. It looks yummy : ) I need to get a springform pan!!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Holy Cow! I was hesitant about my suggestion for a Food TV Hottie calendar. Guess I'm becoming a prude. Great cheesecake shots--oh and the dessert looks good, too. LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Coming over from TFF- this looks so good, I LOVE cheesecake!

  66. this cheesecake was killer - don't tell anyone but me and the boyfriend ate the whole thing in less than 12 hours. next time i will have to try the strawberries.

    johnson size guesser - lol.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I've always been slightly afraid of making a cheesecake...just seems a little difficult to do I guess.....however, since it's one of the boyfriend's favorite sweets I should probably figure it out :)

    ReplyDelete
  68. Sorry I'm late!
    Welcome back, and good pick, I need a slightly different cheesecake recipe from the one I've been making for an event coming up, and this one looks tasty.
