I wanted the springform pan to have the sides exposed so you can see the crust and cheesecake layers when it is on the cake pedestal.

Kevin that sounds so wonderful! Jon loves cheesecake brownies and I bet he would love that. I think we have found my first recipe lol.

Yeah those spring form pans are neat I love mine! And it does make for a nice cheesecake presentation!

Springform pans are also great for making ice cream cakes. My son's favorite is a vanilla with crushed oreo cookies!

I got the stuff today to make a NY style cheesecake with the brownie crust. Wish me luck lol.
