Ingredients

8 1/2 ounces Vanilla Wafer

5 ounces unsalted butter, melted

18 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

10 ounces Bellewether Farms Fromage Blanc, or other high quality cream cheese, at room temperature

3/4 cup sugar

4 eggs

1 teaspoon good quality vanilla extract (not imitation)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon lemon zest (zest first, juice second)

1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

For the crust: Put the wafers into a food processor and process until fine. Pour into a bowl and stir in the melted butter. Press into a spring form pan, molding the crumbs up the sides. Bake at 325 degrees F for 5 minutes, or until golden brown.

For the cheesecake: Beat together the cheeses and sugar until smooth and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the vanilla, lemon juice, zest and salt. Pour the mixture into the cooled crust. Bake at 325 degrees F for 20 - 30 minutes. Edges should puff and the center will wobble slightly.

Cool and serve.

LindySez: Can be made at least a day in advance. Bring out of the refrigerator about an hour before you want to serve.
