Answers:
The cheese is cream cheese which doesn't taste anything like "regular" cheese!. The essential ingredients in a cheescake are cream cheese, milk or cream, eggs, a little flour, sugar and vanilla extract for flavor!. Cheese cake is loaded with calories and has a high fat content; but once in awhile it's fine to treat yourself!. After all, we have to enjoy life too!. ;o)

Do a Google search for New York Cheese Cake!. There are some wonderful and foolproof recipes to be found!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is no actual cheese in cheesecake!.
It is made primarily with cream cheese!.

In a standard New York style cheesecake - Ingredients:

Cheesecake:
3 lbs!. cream cheese
1 3/4 c!. sugar
1 1/4 c!. sour cream
1/4 tsp!. salt
1 tsp!. vanilla
1 tsp!. lemon juice
6 eggs
1 tsp!. grated lemon peel

Crust:
1 1/2 c!. graham cracker crumbs
4 oz!. butter, melted
1 tsp!. cinnamon
1/4 c!. sugar

1 piece or 80 g (it depends on the type of Cheesecake and the size of a piece) would be about 260 calories!.

160 of those calories are from fat!.

Here is a good video that I've watched from YouTube by one of my favorites, Alton Brown (from the Food Network) making a cheesecake and giving more information about it:
