How to cook deliciously - Peanut Butter Cheesecake

1. Stage

In a small bowl, combine the pretzels and butter. Press the mixture onto the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a greased 10 inch springform pan. Place the pan on a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for five minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Test Kitchen Tip: Crush the pretzels in a bag using a rolling pin, in a food processor or a high-powered blender. The crumbs should be fine in texture.
