Luscious Lemon Cheesecake Recipe

For the Crust:
3 tbsps. of melted butter
1/2 tsp. zest of a lemon
1 tbsp. of sugar
1 c. of wafer-crumbs (vanilla flavored)

For the Filling:
2/3 c. of sugar
16 ozs. of cream cheese
1 tbsp. of cornstarch/flour
1 tsp. zest of a lemon (fresh)
2 big eggs
2 tbsps. freshly squeezed juices from a lemon

Mix all the ingredients for the crust then pat it onto a springform style pan that is 7-inches in diameter. In a bowl, beat or whish sugar & cream cheese together just until they smoothen out then add eggs.

Next, continue with beating at medium speed using an electrically operated hand held mixer (3 mins.). Add in remainder of the ingredients then continue to beat for another 1 min.

Pour the batter onto the crust that was just prepared then put a cheesecake rack inside your slow cooker/crockpot. Cook covered at high settings for around 2.5-3 hrs. Allow to cool inside the pot for 1-2 hrs. just until it has cooled down sufficiently for eash handling.

After cooling, remove the sides of your pan then place inside the fridge to chill prior to serving it. If there are leftovers then just put them back in your refrigerator.
