NY Style Cheesecake

Tomorrow is Cindy's last day at pre-school, and since it is her last day they will be throwing her a party, which means I'm making treats for the kids and the teachers. The kids will be snacking on the Cherry Coke Float Cupcakes I made earlier and the teachers get their favorite cheesecake. I've made this cheesecake for them before and they always love it, and so does Carol!

I know it's hard to let something that looks so good just sit over night, but i promise it's worth it!
