Combine and press in bottom and halfway up sides of
springform pan

Filling: 4 8 oz pkg cream cheese (softenend) 4 eggs 1
1/4 cups sugar 1 Tbll lemon juice 2 tsp vanilla

Beat cream cheese till soft. Add sugar, eggs, lemon
and vanilla. Spoon over crust. Bake at 350 for approx

from oven and let stand for 15 mins. Keep oven on.

Topping: 2 cups sour cream 1/4 cup sugar 1 tsp vanilla

Combine in bowl and refrigerate while cake is baking

After cake cools for the 15 mins, spoon topping over

This goes together very fast and is an oft requested
