Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Place cookies in a food processor, pulse until finely crushed. Add margarine, pulse until well blended. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 10-inch springform pan. Refrigerate crust until ready to use.

  3. Beat cream cheese in a large bowl with electric mixer at medium speed until creamy. Add 2/3 cup sugar and cornstarch, beat until blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.

Recipe Note

My family and I went to the Cheesecake Factory® in Nashville and we got the best cheesecake I had ever had. I came home and was determined to figure the recipe out. I tried it out one weekend and it tasted almost identical of the original. Garnish with more fresh banana slices.
