Comcast Cooking Show

A revised edition of Crownover's Cheesecake Extraordinaire (1990), this book includes updated versions of many recipes from the original edition, along with a new section on lower-fat cheesecakes made with yogurt. There are 125 recipes in all, organized into chapters by major flavoring ingredient, from caramel to coconut to vanilla. There's also an informative though brief introduction to baking cheesecakes and nutritional analyses for the yogurt-based recipes (but not the full-fat versions!). For most baking collections.
