Description
Cheesecake by any other name, this is one I’ve been making for fifty years. It has now become a specialty of my granddaughter, who decorates the top with assorted berries and kiwi.
Ingredients
- ¼ cups Butter, Melted
- 1-½ cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 1-¼ cup Sugar, Divided
- 12 ounces, fluid Cream Cheese
- 2 whole Eggs
- 3 teaspoons Vanilla, Divided
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
- 1 cup Sour Cream
Preparation
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
1. Blend the melted butter with 1/4 cup sugar and the graham crackers. Press into the bottom and sides of a pie plate. Bake for ten minutes at 300 degrees.
2.To the cream cheese, add 3/4 cup sugar, eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Beat in a mixer until well blended. Pour into baked crust. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove and cool for ten minutes.
3. Blend the sour cream, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla. Spread over slightly cooled filling and bake for 5 minutes longer.
4. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for five hours (more or less) before serving.
5. Decorate or not … delicious either way.
