Preparation

• Make sure butter and cream cheese are at room temperature. Line the a 7-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
• Soften the butter and mix with the graham cracker crumbs. Pour the graham cracker mix into the bottom of the prepared pan and press down lightly to make a base. Preheat the oven to 340°F.
• In a bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until soft, then add the rest of the ingredients, in order, mixing each one thoroughly before adding the next.
• Continue until the mixture thickens (about an extra 5 minutes after adding the lemon juice), then pour into the pan on top of the graham cracker crust.
• Bake in the oven for 45 - 50 minutes until the top is golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
• Once it had cooled, remove from the pan, discard the lining paper and leave on a rack to cool completely.
