Recipe
Make the cookie crust: mix together the crushed cookies, melted butter, and brown sugar and press evenly over the bottom and up the side of a 9 inch springform pan.
Put the cream cheese into a bowl and beat until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until well blended. Add the eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy. Pour the filling into the cookie crust. Bake at 350
degrees for 25-30 minutes until just set. Leave to cool completely, then transfer to the refrigerator and leave to chill.
Make the topping: Dissolve the arrowroot in a little of the cherry juice.
Put the cherries and their juice into a small pan and add the arrowroot mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring, until thick. Leave to cool completely.
Spoon the cherries on top of the cheesecake filling. Chill. Use a knife to loosen the side of the cheesecake from the pan, then remove cheesecake from the pan.
Serve chilled.
