Things that really, really make it easier and liken the chances for success:

Springform pan: I have tried using baking or pie dishes, and its simply not the same. Its much easier with one of these. $15

Standing mixer: Yes, they cost a lot, but sometimes you can find them cheap or on sale. Mine was a gift. There are many cool things you can do with them, like make batches of mashed potatoes, pizza dough, and mousse cake.

Food processor: The one in the pictures is a cuisinart mini-prep. I generally cook for myself or maybe one other, so its nice - small enough so that its easy to clean, but you can do 3 cups worth of stuff in it. Hummus, Salsa, easy fruit sauces, and dry mixes are but a few of many uses you can get out of this $40 appliance.

Ingredients:

Filling:

1/2 bar White Chocolate (optional - other things can go here depending on how you want to flavor your cheesecake)
3 things cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2c heavy cream
4 eggs
splash vanilla extract (1 tsp)

Crust:

28 Vanilla Wafers
3 Tbs sugar
3-4 Tbs melted butter
1/4 cup almonds, toasted

Toast the almonds in a 350 degree oven. Sometimes I use the broiler for time's sake, but you have to make sure they don't burn. Check them to make sure. Toast until golden brown. In this picture, I have just put them in.
