Even with half quantities, it's a very enormous cheese cake, and very filling. The one I made will do at least 3 meals... and from Wednesday onwards, life gets complicated with various Christmas dinners and early evening dancing engagements, so there will be no call for cheese cake.
I did know that a cup was an American measure, but I doubted that that was what was meant in a recipe that came from a Scottish person in the 70s, when no other quantity was given in cups. But who knows? One measurement was in ounces, one in tablespoons, one in teaspoons, one in cups, three in packets, and one in tins, so perhaps the person who wrote it down was trying to collect a full set. All we were missing was grammes.
