Citrus Dream Cheesecake

Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed vanilla wafers
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 containers (16 oz) Norman's Kosher Cholov Yisroel Cream Cheese
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine the crushed vanilla wafers and olive oil in a bowl and mix well. Press the mixture evenly onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the lemon juice, cream cheese, and sugar until well combined.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring well after each addition, until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the mixture over the vanilla wafer crust in the springform pan.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center of the cheesecake is still slightly jiggly.
  7. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  8. When ready to serve, sprinkle the chopped macadamia nuts over the top of the cheesecake.
Enjoy the delicious, citrusy flavors of this creamy and unique cheesecake!
