Winner of the May 2003 Kaiser Bakeware Recipe Contest
Preheat oven to 400 F (375 if you know your oven tends to run hot)
Very important: All ingredients must be at room temperature before you begin. Allow at least 30 minutes for this. Put all ingredients into a very large bowl for an electric mixer. Beat on high speed for 20 minutes. Pour into 10" round springform pan. Place springform pan into larger roasting pan into which you have put about 1" of hot (or boiling) water. Bake on lowest rack in oven for 1 hour. Remove springform pan from larger pan with water and cool cheesecake on a rack at room temperature. Refrigerate at least 8 hours (preferably overnight). Enjoy! This cake is incredibly rich and creamy and easily serves 20.
