CHEATER'S NEW YORK STYLE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Combine the sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a mixer for one minute. Add the cream cheese and mix until smooth. Add the melted butter and mix a few seconds longer.
• Pour into ready-made pie crust ( I use the larger ones with the 2 extra servings) and bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes.
• If you want to brown the top, turn on the broiler and watch it. If you look away, it will burn.
• Cool for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator. Overnight is better. Cut into thin slices. It is cheesecake after all.
• We prefer it plain, but feel free to add the topping of your choice.

EASY SOUR CREAM CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cream together cream cheese and sugar. Add eggs one at time, blending well. Add vanilla and sour cream. Pour into shortbread crust.
• Bake for 60 to 70 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cake jiggles evenly across the top when lightly shaken. Run a knife around the outside edge, but leave the cake in the pan. Let cool on counter, then place in refrigerator. Remove from pan when completely chilled, and serve.
