Cheese Cake

2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 lbs cream cheese
2 eggs
8 ounces sour cream
1/2 cup butter, melted or softened
1 cup sugar, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla 2 1/2

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. To make the crust, mix graham crackers crumbs, butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar in bowl.
3. Press mixture in bottom and sides of 9 inch springform pan.
4. In mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and remaining sugar for 2 minutes.
5. Add eggs and vanilla to mixture and mix until well blended.
6. Then stir or fold in sour cream.
7. Pour mixture in crust filled pan and bake for 10 minutes.
8. Then reduce to 200 degrees to bake for 45 minutes.
9. From here the cheese cake just needs to be chilled, but I recommend doing the following step if you have a few extra hours- Leave in warm oven, once you turn it off but leave door slightly open.
10. Let sit and cool for 2 hours and remove from oven.
11. Remove sides from pan and chill in refrigerator.

After much experimenting I came up with the perfect cheese cake. Hope you try it.

Hang in there Rufio, tried posting recipe ingredients but guess its too long will have to split it up...
This is from a Waitrose card, so items listed can be substituted...........


LEMON CHEESECAKE
with Greek Yoghurt & Honey

Prep time 20mins plus 4 hours chilling

Serves 6 -8

This cheesecake, made with Greek Yoghurt and honey, makes a delicious end to a meal. For an alternative base you could use ginger biscuits or Swiss-style museli instead of the digestive biscuits.

The base

175g/6ozs Waitrose Digestive biscuits, crushed

75g/2 3/4ozs St Ivel English unsalted butter, melted

25g/1oz Waitrose Demerara sugar

cont.
The cheesecake topping

1 x 200g pack Waitrose Full Fat Soft Cheese

60ml/4 tablespoons Waitrose Greek honey

1 x 150g pot Total Light Authentic Greek Strained Yoghurt

juice and zest of 2 lemons

1 x 142ml pot Waitrose Fresh Double Cream

1. Lightly grease the base of a 20cm/8in round loose-bottomed cake tin. Make the cheesecake base by combining the biscuit crumbs, butter and demerara sugar. Press the mixture evenly over the base of the tin with the back of a spoon. Leave in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the cheesecake topping.

2. Place the soft cheese, honey and yoghurt in a bowl and beat well, using an electric hand whisk or balloon whisk, until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Stir in the lemon juice and zest.

cont.
3. Add the cream and continue whisking carefully at a low speed until the mixture becomes the consistency of lightly whipped cream.

4. Pour the mixture over the biscuit base and leave in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until the cheesecake has set.

5. Transfer to a serving plate and decorate simply with shavings of lemon zest or seasonal fruit.


Sorry it had to be in separate postings but...................

No leaf,

Not trying to promote their products - although it might look that way - just happens to be on one of their many recipe cards I picked up at the store.............being my favourite supermarket!

S'pose I could have saved some typing if I had omitted their name! Lol ☺
