EGGNOG CHEESECAKE

Ingredients
46 NILLA Wafers
6 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 (8 ounce) packages PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons rum*
1 cup vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup whipping cream
4 egg yolks

Cooking Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F if using a silver springform pan (or 300 degrees F if using a dark nonstick springform pan.) Mix crumbs, butter and nutmeg; press onto bottom and 1-1/2 inches up side of 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 min.
Beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, rum and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add 2 whole eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Blend in whipping cream and egg yolks; pour into crust.
Bake 1 hour 10 min. to 1 hour 15 min. or until center is almost set. Run knife or metal spatula around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool before removing rim of pan. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
Yield: 16 servings

*I'm sure one could sub Kahlua or Bailey's for the rum*
