** ** Beat the cheese until light. Add sugar and beat again. Add eggs, one
at a time, beating after each. Add cream, cornstarch, vanilla and mix well.
Stir in nuts (optional).
Pour into prepared pan. Drop sauce in spoonful at a time and swirl with a
knife.
Bake at 350-degrees for 1 hour or so with a pan of water at the bottom of
the oven to keep the humidity high. Cake is done when edges are firm but
middle is still somewhat soft. When possible let the cake cool in the oven
with the door ajar but run a knife around the edge of the cake to loosen
from pan BEFORE it cools or it will crack down the middle.
Cool several ours or overnight. Top with more fudge sauce and peanuts.
Enjoy. This one is rich so be prepared!
