This comes from an old PTA cookbook I've had since my kids were in gradeschool. DD#2 loves cheesecake and this is the one she requests for her birthday cake. Drizzle a small amount of chocolate syrup on top when serving for an added taste treat. Ingredients:
1 cup fine graham cracker crumbs |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1/3 cup butter, melted |
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened |
1 cup sour cream |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
3 eggs |
2 egg yolks |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1/4 cup granulated sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |

2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar and melted butter and press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan.
