Easy Cheesecake 1 lb. cream cheese 3 medium eggs 2/3 c. sugar 1/4 tsp. almond or lemon extract Beat all of the above for 10 minutes. Pour into a 10 inch pie pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Cool at room temperature for 20 minutes. 1 c. sour cream 3 tbsp. sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract Mix sour cream, sugar, and vanilla together. Pour on top of cheesecake and back again for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. This is a good basic start. I like to try variations on this, such as substituting 1 tbsp of rum for the lemon extract. This makes a nice rum cheesecake. Miriam Harvey
