Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350ºF.  To prepare the crust, combine the first 3 ingredients in a bowl. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom and 2 inches up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350ºF. for 10 minutes, and cool the crust on a wire rack. To prepare filling, combine cottage cheese, 11/2 tablespoons vanilla, salt, and cream cheeses in a food processor; process 1 minute or until smooth. Add eggs and egg white, 1 at a time, pulsing after each addition. Add 1 cup sugar; process just until blended. Pour the cheese mixture into the prepared crust, and bake at 350ºF. for 50 minutes or until the cheesecake is almost set. Remove the cheesecake from oven, and let stand 10 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450ºF. To prepare topping, combine 3 tablespoons sugar and the remaining ingredients. Spread evenly over cheesecake. Bake cheese cake at 450ºF. for 5 minutes or until set. Cool completely on wire rack. Cover and chill 8 hours.
