1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon cinnamon

7-Up Filling
1 envelope unflavored gelatine
1 ½ cups 7-Up, divided

Recipe



For Crumb Crust:
Combine all ingredients well. Press onto bottom and part way up sides of buttered 9-inch springform pan; chill.

For 7-Up Filling:
Soften unflavored gelatine in ¼ cup 7-Up for 4 minutes. In a saucepan combine pie filling, sugar, beaten eggs and water. Blend well. Add 1 ¼ cups 7-Up and bring just to a boil over medium heat stirring constantly; remove from heat. Stir in softened gelatine; cool 3 minutes. Add ½ cup of this warm mixture to softened cream cheese; mash together. Mix together with remaining 7-Up mixture and stir until well blended. Turn into chilled crust and chill for at least 8 hours. Remove from pan and add Strawberry Glaze.

For Strawberry Glaze:
Brush top of chilled cheesecake with melted jelly. Arrange strawberries upright on cake and spoon any remaining melted jelly over them.
