Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake

I feel sad for anyone who has never been to a Cheesecake Factory restaurant. This cheesecake is out of this world! I think you will find the nut crust quite unusual. Sometimes I double the crust portion of the recipe just so I can have a thicker crust.

Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake typically does not have nuts in the crust...

You could put a small oven safe dish of water in the oven when you bake it. The moisture prevents the cracking. You can swap the vanilla wafers for graham crackers too. I have heard that if you beat the eggs too much your cheesecake will sink and split. [I posted this recipe.]
