Ingredients
- 2 cups graham-cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 6 tablespoons butter melted
- 24 ounces cream cheese
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 6 eggs seperated
- 1 pint sour cream
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Buttercream Frosting
- 1 cup butter softened
- 3 cups confectioners sugar sifted
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
- food coloring of your choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- To make the crust, generously grease a 9x2 springform pan with butter. Place pan in center of a 12 inch square of aluminum foil and press foil up around the side of the pan.
- Combine graham- cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon and melted butter in a small bowl until well blended. Press crumb mixture into bottom and side of the pan. Chill prepared pan while making the filling. To make the filling, with an electric mixer on low speed; beat cream cheese in a large bowl until soft. Gradually beat in sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks one at a time, until well blended. Stir in sour cream, flour, vanilla, lemon rind, and juice until smooth. Beat egg whites until they hold stiff peaks. Fold white into the cheese mixture, until well blended. Pour into the prepared pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until top is golden brown, turn off oven and allow to cake to cool for 1 hour. The cheesecake is done when you remove the cheesecake and there is still a slight wiggle in the center of the cheesecake. Remove cake from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack at room temperature. Chill overnight before serving. If you are using the small heart-shaped pans, the baking will be between 45 minutes and 1 hour, check the cheesecakes for their doneness by giving them a little wiggle and seeing if the center is set.
- Butter Cream Frosting Instructions Beat butter for a few minutes with a mixer with the paddle attachment on medium speed. Add 3 cups of powdered sugar and turn your mixer on the lowest speed (so the sugar doesn’t blow everywhere) until the sugar has been incorporated with the butter. Increase mixer speed to medium and add vanilla extract, salt, and 2 tablespoons of milk/cream and beat for for 3 minutes. Add food coloring if desired. Remove cheesecake from mold, and then gently frost the cheesecake. The Butter Cream recipe was slightly adapted from the SweetSavoryLife blog, whose technique of sifting the powdered sugar makes all of the difference when making a butter cream icing.
