Directions
White Cheddar, Apple, and Bacon Cheesecake, Diane Phillips, Wasn’t a favorite, although all the components are good used an imported porter ale cheddar cheese, which probably wasn’t the best choice Next time I’d just use plain sharp cheddar Be sure to serve with bread – it’s quite rich and needs something like a cracker or bread to temper it Be sure to crumble the bacon into really small bits And be sure to use a single piece of foil or parchment for the bottom and sides of the springform pan because the juice from the apple mixture will leak right out of the pan otherwise AND, if you’re serving it on a buffet table, I’d be sure to put a little sign as to what it is – it’s very hard to guess at what this is – most people would think it’s dessert Some people just picked off the fruit off the top
