1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon flour

16 ounces cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large lemon, juice and grated rind, yellow part only

TOPPING

1 pint sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

For Crust: Mush up with fingers and press firmly into bottom of springform pan.

For Filling: Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour on top of crust and bake for 25 minutes (or until set) at 375 degrees F. Cool.

Blend topping ingredients. Pour on top of cooled filling and bake at 375 degrees F for 5 to 8 minutes.

  1. floridagirl REVIEW:

    A very good basic cheesecake that is pretty foolproof too. I sometimes vary the topping and add fruit or just add a fruit sauce on top when serving.

  2. andy shed REVIEW:

    i have made this cheesecake foe 20 yrs.i never get tired of it and all the family love it too. I have friends who travel to me for a coffee when i mention i have made it.

  3. tigerb67 REVIEW:

    Montana was my aunt and the recipe was brought by my Oma(grandmother), from Germany. I have the original (handwritten and the original Moosewood Cookbook)and am wondering why, the recipe has been slightly altered....and stuff added to it? It's still good but not the same...the original unaltered recipe will knock yer socks off!
