Ingredients
Crust
- 35 Ritz crackers
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 4 lices cooked bacon chopped
- 3 T. butter melted
Filling
- 24 oz. cream cheese room temperature
- 7 jalapeños
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Topping
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 1/2 T. lemon juice
- 1 1/2 T. granulated sugar

Instructions
Crust
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a food processor, place all the crackers in and pulse until all the crackers have been turned into crumbs.
- Add in the cheese, bacon, and melted butter. Pulse until the crumbs become moist and everything is incorporated.
- Press the crumbs into an 8 inch spring form pan.
- Place in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Filling
- Wipe down the food processor so no crumbs get into the filling.
- Add in the cream cheese and jalapenos. Pulse until the jalapenos are finely minced. I left mine on high until there were only teeny weeny pieces of jalapenos.
- Add in the sugar, eggs, and sour cream and pulse until combined.
- Pour into the spring form pan on top of the crust. Place in the 350 degree oven for 1 hour.
- Prepare the topping before the 1 hour is up since the cheesecake needs to be put back into the oven.
Topping
- In a small bowl, add in the sour cream, lemon, and sugar, Whisk until incorporated.
- Once the hour of baking is up, pour the topping on the cheesecake and place back in the oven for another 15 - 20 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and crack the oven door. Let the cheesecake cool for about 2 hours.
- Place in the fridge to chill. Sprinkle with bacon pieces, cut, and serve.
