Great Grandma Rush's Cheesecake recipe. This recipe includes making the graham cracker crust, and the two layer cheesecake. I use 1-gallon ziplock and my rolling pin to crush the graham crackers. I also use real lemon for the lemon juice. This recipe was designed for a springform pan, if using glass pie plates this usually can be made into two cakes. Servings vary based on how large you cut the slices. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups graham crackers, crushed |
1 -1 1/2 cup melted butter |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 bricks cream cheese (softened) |
1 cup sugar |
3 eggs |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 1/2 cups sour cream |
4 -5 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Graham Cracker Crust - Mix crushed graham crackers and 1/2 C sugar. Add melted butter and mix. Press graham cracker mix into springform pan (or glass pie plate). Bake for 9 min 350 deg. 2. First Layer - Blend cream cheese, 1 C sugar, eggs, and lemon juice until smooth (about 2-3 min). Pour over baked crust. Bake 25-29 min 350 deg. 3. Second Layer - Stir sour cream, 4-5 tbls sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Pour over cake. Bake 5 min 350 deg. 4. Finish - Let cake set overnight in refrigerator. |
