Description

I have a feeling that most people who love cheesecake also love lemon desserts. I also know that making a full cheesecake, while rewarding, is an investment in time and effort between the low and slow baking, the finicky cooling, and waiting for it to chill in the refrigerator.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (240g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • For the filling
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 lemon, zested (2 to 3 teaspoons finely grated zest)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup homemade or store-bought lemon curd

Directions:
