Plain Old Cheesecake
Crust:
18 graham crackers (I have used digestive biscuits)
1/4 cup melted butter
1 Tablespoon honey
Filling:
16 ounces cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Crumble graham crackers in a food processor. Melt the butter with the honey and pour into the crackers as the food processor is going.
Turn it out into a spring form pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper if you like. Press the crust into the bottom so it is more or less even and comes up the sides a little.
Put all the filling ingredients into a bowl and blend until smooth. Pour it on top of the crust and bake for 20-25 minutes at 375 degreed F.
Cool at room temperature until you can handle the pan. Then put it in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours so it is firm.
Top with berries, or jam, or eat it plain.
not so plain, and it would never grow old in our household – wouldn’t last a minute!!!
It sure didn’t last long here !!
