Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the crumbs
in a mixing bowl and add the butter (NO margarine) and
sugar. Blend well. Press the mixture onto the bottom
and partly up the sides of a greased 9-inch springform
pan. Smooth the crumb mixture along the bottom to an
even thickness. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated
oven. Cool before filling. CHEESECAKE:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing
bowl, beat together the cream cheese, milk, salt, and
vanilla until well blended. Add the eggs and sugar
and continue to beat until light and creamy. Pour the
mixture into the prepared crust and bake for 35
minutes, or until lightly browned; the cake should be
set in the middle. Remove the cake from the oven and
cool for 10 minutes. Prepare the topping by mixing
together, the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla. Spread
the topping over the top of the cake. Return the cake
to the oven and bake for 15 minutes more. Cool to
room temperature; then refrigerate until chilled.
Just before serving, garnish the top of the cake with
slices of Kiwi fruit.
