NO-BAKE LEMON CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugars in a medium-sized bowl. Add melted butter and use a fork to combine ingredients well.
• Pour mixture into a 9″ or 10″ springform pan. Use the (clean!) bottom of a measuring cup to firmly pack crumbs into the bottom of the pan and gently press up the sides. Use your fingers to pack crumbs tightly into the sides of the pan.
• Place in refrigerator or freezer while you prepare cheesecake filling.
• Pour Lemon Jello gelatin mix into 1 cup very hot water and stir well. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, stir cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and well-combined.
• Add sour cream and stir well.
• Mix in vanilla extract.
• Only once jello mixture is no longer hot to the touch, gradually pour into cream cheese mixture. Stir slowly at first (to avoid splashing) and then increase speed until mixture is completely combined (pause to scrape down sides of the bowl periodically). Stir very well.
• In a separate bowl, pour your heavy cream and use an electric mixer with whisk attachment to beat to stiff peaks.
• Fold whipped cream into cheesecake mixture until well-combined.
• Fold in lemon zest, if using.
• Pour over graham cracker crust and transfer to refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight to chill.
