Ingredients
  

Ingredients for Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 14 Graham Crackers double squares
  • Cup Melted Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar

Ingredients for the No Bake Cheesecake Filling:

  • 16 ounces of Cream Cheese softened
  • 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • Juice from one Lemon
  • 1/3 Cup Sour Cream
  • 1 1/2 Cups Heavy Cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Chill metal bowl for whipped cream by placing it in the fridge.
  • To make the graham cracker crust, pulse your graham crackers in a food processor until they become fine crumbs. Then combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Once thoroughly mixed, add in sugar. Press by hand into greased springform pan.
  • Bake the crust for 6-7 minutes or until golden brown. Allow the crust to cool completely before use.
  • Or if you want to go completely no bake. You can use the crust without baking it, but it will be more crumbly.
  • To make the filling, beat the cream cheese in mixer (or used hand mixer) until it's soft and smooth.
  • Add in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until thoroughly blended.
  • Last, add in sour cream and mix well.
  • Remove your chilled bowl from the fridge and add the heavy cream. Whip it until the whipped cream form stiff peaks.
  • Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Pour your finished filling into a springform pan with crust.
  • Place it in the fridge and allow it to set for 4-6 hours.
  • Serve plain, with fresh fruit, or fruit compote.
