I knew you were coming, so I baked a cake

Well, what with the new dessert forks from my previous post, I felt a New York cheesecake was in order ;)

I took the recipe from a book I've had a while:

Luckily, you can get Digestive biscuits in France for the base, they are called Sablés Anglais. I couldn't find sour cream anywhere, so used Schlagsahne with lemon and sugar added to it for the topping, which seemed to work ok. 

Looking forward to trying the cheesecake tomorrow when our guest arrives :)
