The Best Cherry Cheesecake image

This is the best cherry cheese cake I've ever tasted! It's light, creamy and delicious. The recipe was given to me years ago and it's a staple dessert at our house. The recipe serves four but I double it and use a 9"x13" dish which serves 8-10.This is the first dessert to go at potlucks and I am repeatedly asked for the recipe.
