It is my understanding in 1969 that the cheesecake sold at B. Altman's for take-out
was made by a lady somewhere up in Washington Heights. One had to order it by about
4:00 p.m. Wednesday in order for it to be available on Friday after 1:00 p.m. I used
to buy it to take home to Minneapolis Friday nights.
Would love to have her recipe - results were wonderful!

Hi Al,
Sorry, after another attempt today, I am still unable to find the cheesecake recipe or any
recipes at all from B Altman's. I did not find any mention of their cheesecake being made
by someone outside their bakery. I'll post this for reader input.
