    Recipe Introduction


    You will fall in love with this thick, rich cheesecake! We like it plain but you can serve it with fresh fruit or pie filling.


    List of Ingredients


    • 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
    • 1/2 cup of melted margarine
    • 5 8oz. pkgs. of softened cream cheese
    • 1-3/4 cups of sugar
    • 2 TBL. all purpose flour
    • 1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
    • 5 eggs
    • 2 egg yolks
    • 1/3 cup of whipping cream

    1. For crust, combine the graham cracker crumbs and the melted butter. Stir until well combined and press onto the bottom and 1" up the sides of a greased springform pan.
    2. In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar, flour, and vanilla. Beat with mixer until fluffy.
    3. Add eggs and egg yolks, beating on low speed just until combined.
    4. Stir in whipping cream and pour mixture into prepared pan.
    5. Place springform pan on a cookie sheet in the oven and bake at 325 for 1-1/2 hours or until the center appears nearly set when shaken.
    6. Cool 15 minutes.
    7. Loosen crust from sides of pan.
    8. Cool 30 minutes more; remove sides of pan and cool completey.
    9. Chill 4-24 hours.


    Final Comments


    I don't cover my cheesecake until after it has been cut. Covering beforehand creates a "wet look".
    Store in the refrigerator. This cheesecake takes almost 2 hours in my oven to bake. Please adjust your baking time accordingly.
