XClose

Ingredients:

1 2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
2 lbs. cream cheese, softened
6 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup dairy sour cream
Juice of one lemon
8 oz. Tootsie Rolls
1/3 cup whipping cream

Directions:

Combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of sugar and the butter; mix well. Lightly butter a 10-inch round, 2-inch deep cake pan (do not use spring form pan as the batter is too thin). Press crumb mixture evenly into bottom of pan.

Beat cream cheese with remaining 1 1/4 cups of sugar until smooth, scraping sides of bowl often. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add sour cream, lemon juice and vanilla, beating until smooth.

Melt Tootsie Rolls in top of a double boiler; stir in cream, then add to cream cheese mixture, mixing well. Pour over crust. Place cake pan in another large, deep pan; pour water around cake pan to a depth of about 1 1/2 inches. Bake in a 300° oven for about 2 hours or until center is set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool, then chill several hours or overnight. To remove from pan, heat outside of pan slightly and cake will drop out. Re-invert onto serving platter.

Yield:

Makes 16 servings.
