 Jo-Ann Copp (Pennsylvania) says:
NOTE: Have all ingredients at room temperature and bake the cake in the middle rack of the oven. If you have a large capacity food processor, by all means, use it for this recipe. The steel blade will blend the ricotta to a velvety texture and the resulting cheesecake will be very smooth and creamy.

Have had this recipe for years and thought I lost it until I found it on Cooks.com - am so excited to have it back. This is by far the best cheesecake ever!!! Please take the hint about the food processor seriously, it makes the difference between a cheesecake and a bit of heaven. Bake and enjoy, I know I will!!!
