FOR THE CRUST;
Mix together the Graham Cracker crumbs, sugar and margarine.
Press crumb mixture in bottom and part way up the sides of a
lightly sprayed 9 or 10 inch spring form pan. Set aside.
For The Filling:
You'll need a strong mixer for this. Mix the cream cheese,
sugar, flour, vanilla, and the lemon juice. Blend well.
Add the eggs, beating well after each
egg is added. Add the yolks, beat again. Add the heavy cream
and beat until all cream is well-incorporated.
Pour this mixture into the prepared pan.
Bake cake in a preheated 500 degree oven for ten minutes.
Reduce heat to 250 degrees and bake for one hour.
Remove cake from oven and immediately spread sour cream on top.
For best results, remove the sides of pan and place cake in the
refrigerator overnight.
The next day, place your favorite fruit on top or serve plain.
