Cheesecake Supreme

Cakes
...a very different cheesecake than my famous Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake.  It has a pastry dough crust, instead of the traditional graham cracker crust.  It's also delicious.   I had one noted chef taste both and he declared this one his favorite.  This recipe was given to by fellow teacher nearly 40 years ago.
