Super Easy Cheesecake

January 28, 2009 at 11:29 am 4 comments

This is more like a cheese pie than it is like a traditional cheesecake but it’s so delicious and so easy to make.  This is one of DS’s favorites.

You can top it with any kind of pie filling ~ we just like cherry.  I use light cream cheese and light sour cream instead of the regular and light pie filling.

Super Easy Cheesecake

Cheesecake
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla

Topping
1 cup sour cream
5 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Grease 9″ pie plate.

Cream the cheese and sugar, add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Add the vanilla, pour into the pan and bake at 350º for 25 minutes.   The cheesecake will puff up and then settle down.  Cool the cheesecake 20 minutes, then add the topping.

Mix topping ingredients together and pour on cheesecake. Bake an additional 7 minutes at 350º to set the top. Cool, chill and, before serving, top with a can of pie filling.

8 servings.

    Cheesecake is probably one of my favourite desserts – yum :) The topping on this one looks delicious, too.
