Receta Lemon Cheesecake
Lemon Cheesecake
I hadn’t made a homemade cheesecake for a while and since it’s hubby’s favorite dessert, I thought I would whip this up. And since I’ve been in a lemon kick lately, I made a lemon cheesecake and then I topped it with cherry pie filling and oh, la la. Cheesecakes can be daunting, but as usual, this one is super easy…
Lemon Cheesecake
INGREDIENTS:
1 premade pie crust (or make your own from the freezer section like I did)
- 3-8 ounce blocks, lightened cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 cup lemon creme pie filling
- 1 teaspoon lemon exract
DIRECTIONS:
Cream together the cream cheese and sugar. While mixer is running, slowly add eggs and continue to mix for another 2 minutes or until smooth. Add pie filling and lemon extract and mix thoroughly. Pour into cooled crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. Center will not be set until cooled.
