The Best Cheesecake on Earth

It's the best according to Dave... what more could we say except thanks to Carol Anderson for
this one. She's by far one of the best cooks in Ketchikan, Alaska!

Crust:

bball.gif (926 bytes)
3/4 cup fine graham cracker crumbs
bball.gif (926 bytes)
3 TBS. Melted butter

Mix all together and press into the bottom of a greased (bottom only) 9" springform pan.

Filling:

bball.gif (926 bytes) 4 pkg. Softened cream cheese
bball.gif (926 bytes)
4 eggs
bball.gif (926 bytes)
1 1/4 cup sugar
bball.gif (926 bytes)
1 TBS. Lemon juice

2 tsp. Vanilla

Mix together and pour on top of crust. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. If you use a smaller
springform pan bake 50-55 minutes.

Topping:

bball.gif (926 bytes) 2 cups sour cream
bball.gif (926 bytes)
1/4 cup sugar
bball.gif (926 bytes)
1 tsp. Vanilla

Mix together and pour on top of cheesecake right from the oven. Place back in the oven
and bake another 5 minutes. Cool on a rack and then refrigerate. Carol says this is best
when made at least a day.
