When you can't get to Junior's located in Brooklyn, NY...this is the next best thing.  Whenever I make this it goes quickly!

Cheesecake recipe on one of my favorite sites: http://joyofbaking.com/Cheesecake.html

***NOTE:  
1)I didn't make the sour cream topping, but I'm sure it's good! :-)

2)to make a tart, use half of the recipe on the website 

3) for the cookie crumb I used Keebler Sandies Shortbread cookies, I love the one with pecan's but I don't think crushing the pecans in the food processor would be good for the equipment***
