Amaretto Cheesecake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese
    1 1/2 c. sugar
    4 eggs, well beaten
    1 tsp. vanilla
    2 1/2 Tbsp. Amaretto
    2 tsp. almond extract
    1 stick butter, melted
    3 Tbsp. cornstarch
    3 Tbsp. flour
    1 pt. sour cream
Preparation
    Cream the cream cheese.
    Gradually add sugar, beating well after each addition.
    Add eggs; beat until batter is smooth.
    Stir in Amaretto, vanilla and melted butter.
    In separate bowl, mix cornstarch and flour with just enough sour cream to make a smooth paste.
    Add this paste and remaining sour cream to cheese mixture. Mix on low speed until thoroughly blended.
    Pour into greased spring-form pan (9-inch).
    Bake at 325\u00b0 for one hour. Turn off oven and allow cake to remain in oven another two hours to cool gradually.
    Cake will fall again with cooling.
    Remove from oven when cool. Remove sides of pan, but leave cake on bottom. Refrigerate and serve in small servings as it is extremely rich and calorie laden.
