2 tbsp brown sugar
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 1/2 lbs cream cheese
2 eggs

Directions:

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Butter a medium sized spring form pan with 1 tablespoon butter.
Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter.

Coat the crumbs well with the butter, then press them into the bottom of the spring form pan.
Place pan in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Whip the cream cheese in a mixer.
With the mixture running slowly, sprinkle in the sugar and cornstarch, then add in the eggs and vanilla.
