1/4 cup sugar

Filling:
3 8oz.Packages cream cheese, softened

Directions:
Directions:
For crust
Blend graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter together. Press crumbs on sides and bottom of a 10" springform pan.

Filling
Mix softened cream cheese and sugar for 3-5 minutes with mixer ( stand mixer preferred)
Add eggs and vanilla

Beat the entire mixture for 30 minutes. I do 10 minutes at a time so I can scrape the sides at intervals.

Pour the cream cheese batter in the graham cracker crust. Bake at 300* for 50-60 minutes. Remove from oven. Cool for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, mix together topping and poor on top of cooled cheesecake.
Return to oven for 10 minutes.
I use a 9" springform pan and bake for about 70 minutes. (When tooth pick or whatever you want to use to test comes out clean, cake is still soft)

Personal Notes:
I received this recipe from a dear friend I met when I lived in New Jersey. Her name is Kay Avers and she got the recipe from a chain department store - that no longer exists - called Lazarus!
