DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 350 degrees.


Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar,


and butter. Press into bottom of an 8 inch springform pan. Wrap a square of foil around bottom of pan.


In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, eggs, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Pour mixture over prepared crust.


Bake at 350 for 50 minutes (until center set).


Place a pie tin, or shalow baking pan filled with water on bottom rack of oven. For added moisture, and to help prevent top from cracking.


Let cake cool completey before removing from pan.


If you prefer, you can spread 1 pint of room temperature sour cream over the top of cheese cake, and return to oven for 5 minutes. ( I never do this).


You can also add any fruit pie filing to the top after cooling.
