Cheesecake

Mountain Road Cheesecake

 ( I love almost anything cheesecake...I think I took Traditional Cheesecake up a notch…)

Cream Together—

24-28 oz. of cream cheese

      1 c. sugar

      1 large egg      

Blend in—

      2 t. lemon peel (optional)

      2 T. lemon juice

      2 tsp. vanilla

      ½ tsp. almond extract

     1  c. milk or (even better…1 c. vanilla yogurt. Also can substitute part sour cream.)

Mix in—

      1/2 c. flour

Beat until very fluffy, nearly doubled.

Spread in dripper pan or even 3 – 9” pie pans. Sprinkle cookie or graham crumbs on top.  You can make a graham cracker or cookie crust and spread it as the first layer if desired. Bake at 325* for 1 hour, then turn off oven and allow to cool for 1 more hour.  Serve with choice of toppings.
