Cheesecake with cherry topping | How to make Cheese Cake

Mix well until crumbs form when pressed and press firmly into a 9 or 10-inch springform-chill at least 1 hour.

Soften cream cheese and add sugar, beat well, then add the eggs, vanilla, and flour. Do not overbeat.

Preheat oven at 450 and bake cheesecake for 10 minutes, lower to 200 and bake for 45 minutes.

Mix the 3 tbsps of sugar in the sour cream and beat really well, until smooth.

Pour evenly over the cheesecake and bake another 20 minutes at 200 degrees.

Shut the oven off and let it sit for 1 hour in the oven.

Then refrigerate overnight.

Combine all the ingredients but only half of the zest. In a medium saucepan cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes. Add the rest of the lemon zest. Cool in the fridge until ready to serve over the cheesecake.

You can also use yogurt, ice cream, or pancakes. It really is delicious.
