Amaretto Almond Cream Cheese Cake
One bite of this Amaretto Almond Cream Cheese Cake and you'll be in heaven. Easy cake recipes don't have to come out a box, and this recipe is one such example. Make a homemade, Southern-style cheesecake with very little fuss! What could be better than that nutty amaretto flavor baked right into a cheesecake and finished with the perfect amount of sliced almonds and cream sauce and a wafer cookie crust? We're not sure, so you should probably have another slice while you think it over. This cake is the perfect after-dinner treat -- it goes great with a cup of coffee or a nightcap.
Notes
Cook the cake for 1 hour and 30 minutes. After this time is up, turn the oven OFF, but keep the cake inside the oven for another hour to 2 hours, or until the cake jiggles a bit in the middle when you shake the pan.
