The Melaniff Family Cookbook
Cheesecake, New York Style
 
Ingredients
1 C Graham Cracker Crumbs
3/4 C Sugar
1/4 C + 2t Melted Butter
1 1/2 C Sour Cream
2 Eggs
2 t Vanilla
1 lb Cream Cheese, broken into pieces
 
Procedure
Blend the cracker crumbs, 1/4 C sugur, 1/4 C butter, and line the bottom of an 8 - 9 inch spring-form pan.
Blend the sour cream, 1/2 C sugar, egges, and vanillia in a food blender for 1 minute. Add the cream cheese. Blend until smooth.
Pour 2 t of melted butter through the top of the machine. Pour into the spring-form pan.
Bake in the lower third of a 325° oven for 45 minutes.
When baking is finished, remove from the oven, and turn oven on to broil. Broil the cheesecake just until the top begins to show attractive spots of brown.
Refrigerate for 4 hours, preferably overnight, before cutting and serving.
This is not low-calorie version. Cut into small pieces - this is very rich
