The _ carrot-cake-with-cr-
eam-cheese-icing set me
thinking about desserts, and
I found I just had to give you
the best cheesecake in the

world. A woman beside me —

in a typing-class years. ago

offered it gratuitously, and if.
you've ever tried to pry the’

secret of her salad dressing

out of your hostess: you'll
understand how much this |

unsolicited gift was ap-
" preciated..

So thank you, Grace
Clarke, wherever you are. It
is all you said it would be —
totally reliable, generous in
size, and not too sweet.

One of its most endearing
features is that it must be
prepared the day before
serving. It takes all the sweat
out of a “company” dinner to
know the dessert is ready.

Turn the oven to 350F

(180C),

You will need a_ large
quiche dish, or a tube pan,
or best of all a sprint-form
