This article celebrates the enduring appeal of the Three Cities of Spain Cheesecake recipe, highlighting its simplicity, deliciousness, and the positive impact it has had on readers' lives.
The Three Cities of Spain Cheesecake is the best cheesecake recipe, period. It was the first cheesecake I ever baked, straight out of my mom's fresh copy of the November 1999 issue of Gourmet magazine. I've tried a handful of other cheesecakes since then, some which have failed me. But I keep coming back to the Three Cities of Spain Cheesecake, and now I don't see why I'd ever stray again. I'm not the only one who thinks this cheesecake is perfect.
One hundred thirty six and counting Epicurious readers have left comments on the recipe. 'Wow! This is the best cheesecake I have ever had. Perfect recipe.

I loved the recipe so much that as soon as I moved into my first apartment, I bought a copy of The Gourmet Cookbook. I couldn't imagine living in a kitchen where I wouldn't be able to pull that big yellow bible off the shelf and open it to the page for Three Cities of Spain Cheesecake. Ten years later, my copy has some nice greasy finger prints on that page. And yet it had been a couple years since I'd actually baked my beloved cheesecake. So last week I pulled up the recipe and made it for my coworkers. As I baked my way through the recipe again, I remembered how much I love the simplicity of the measurements: 3 whole packages of cream cheese, 4 eggs, 1 cup sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla. You could memorize this recipe. Also great: the fact that the crumb crust recipe gives you flexibility about what kind of cookie to use (I use mi-del gluten-free gingersnaps), and it doesn't need to be pre-baked. Another unnecessary step this recipe cuts out: the water bath. Many cheesecake recipes call for wrapping your cheesecake pan tightly in foil and setting it in a hot water bath in the oven to help it cook more evenly. What a pain in the but
