   *Use Basic Recipe *Use Graham Cracker Crust found
   under Crust Variations.
   
   Candy canes, a seasonal favorite, add yummy flavor as
   well as festive color to our delectable peppermint
   cheesecake.  We think it works especially well with
   our graham cracker crust.
   
   Add 1 tsp peppermint extract to basic recipe with
   vanilla.  Reserve 1 cup batter.  Pour remaining into
   prepared pan.  Add 1/2 cup coarsely chopped hard
   peppermint candies and 1-2 drops red food coloring to
   reserved batter; swirl into batter in pan.  Bake as
   directed.  Garnish chilled cake just before serving
   with crushed peppermint candies, if desired.
