Preheat oven to 350.

Crust:
Mix together 6 tablespoons melted butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and 2 cups graham cracker crumbs. Dump into springform pan and using a measuring cup, pack the mixture up the sides of the pan and onto the bottom. Bake for 6 minutes. Cool.

Filling:
In a stand mixer or food processor, beat 24 oz of softened cream cheese (do NOT use the low fat kind, it does not work well), 1 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 tablespoons vanilla, and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Add 5 eggs, one at a time, beating between each addition. After it is mixed thoroughly, add 1/4 cup flour and beat til smooth.

Pour filling into pan with crust and bake 1 1/4 hour (or until the top is lightly browned). Remove from heat and cool compltely.

May be topped with sweetened sour cream or canned cherry pie filling.

    cheesecake- yummy
    Hi Hissy,
    'Glad to see that you not one of the "sugar feeds cancer" crew. LOL
    With this disease, you gotta be allowed to indulge sometimes. One of my chemo friends swears by the no-sugar plan and sadly her cancer keeps returning. I don't think anybody has the answer.
    'Love your posts, Ginny
