and milk in a large bowl until smooth. Beat egg whites until stiff; fold
into cream cheese mixture. Pour into pastry shell. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or
until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Turn off oven. Let
cheesecake cool in oven with door open slightly. Remove cooled cheesecake
from tin and serve.
