BEST CHEESECAKE EVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• To make the Crust: First you want to put your graham crackers in a bowl and crush them to death!
• You want to have very fine pieces!
• After this add 2 teaspoons of softened butter and 2 teaspoons of sugar and mix well.
• Then add to the springform pan and smooth out over the bottom so that it is evenly distributed.
• Your crust is now done!
• As for the cake: Add all cake ingredients except vanilla into a very large mixing bowl and mix until smooth (sometimes after mixing by hand for awhile I use a mixer) then add your 2 teaspoons of vanilla.
• When all done mixing you want to very slowly pour the cake mix into your springform pan with the graham crackers so that you do not push your crust everywhere.
• Pour it in the middle and let spread by itself.
• You want to fill the pan about 3/4 full maybe a little more but not to the top as it will overflow.
• Then put the cheesecake into the oven and place a sheet of aluminum foil lightly on top as not to touch the cake and let cook for 45 minutes.
• Then remove foil and cook an additional 5-15 minutes or until slightly darker yellow tinge becomes visible on the outside top edge.
• Then turn off oven heat and let the cheesecake sit in the oven for 1 hour.
• After this you must remove the cake from the oven and refrigerate it for at least 1 day (2 days and it will cut better).
• I know this might be a tease but it will be worth the wait!
• I promise.
• And just so you know ever since I created this evil cheesecake I now have to make it for everybody all the time so be warned.
