CHERRY CHEESECAKE
This is not low fat......
Ingredients
Crumb crust
3 1/2 cups graham wafer crumbs
1/ 3 cup butter (room temperature)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 cup sugar
Blend all well and press into a 9 or 10 inch spring pan, remember
to press the crumbs up the sides (so the bottom and sides are
covered.
Now take the shell and chill in the fridge 1/2 day
Cheese filling
4 eggs (beat well)
1 cup of sugar
1 --1 pound container of sour cream (room temperature)
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tablespoons of melted butter
1 tin of cherry pie filling or make your own
1 large package of cream cheese * should be 1/2 pound of
butter size cut lengthwise* (room temperature)
Tip
You will find if you take the cheese and sour cream out in the
morning they are easier to work with in the afternoon.
1 tsp vanilla
Use the rind from 1 lemon
About 1 tsp lemon juice.
Mix all the ingredients with a mixer and pour into the shell
Now bake at 3:50 degrees for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours
When the cake is done turn the oven off and open the oven
door. Now leave the cake inside the oven to cool do not
remove it
When it is cool enough to handle then remove it from the oven
Now you will want to chill ( I usually chill overnight in the
fridge)
Open the tin of cherries and pour what you need onto the top
( I usually use the whole tin) sometimes 2 tins)
Enjoy !!!
