Grandma's Cheese Torte Cheesecake (unbaked) image

This recipe isn't for beginners but everyone and I mean everyone in my family enjoyed this dessert on Easter. Grandma would always make this every year. Not sure where this recipe came from but I'm almost certain she found it in a newspaper or magazine.
