"Grandma Taylor's" Lemon Cheese Cake

Its a great version of a beautiful thing!


Ingredients:
2 small packages of Lemon Jell-o
2 cups boiling water
6 tablespoons lemon juice

18 ounces of cream cheese
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla

1 regular size can of "COLD" evaporated milk (I place it in the frig the night before I plan to make it.)

Graham Cracker Crust:
1/3 cup Butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups finely crushed graham crackers (about 18 crackers)

Directions:
Combine and desolve first 3 items.   Then set aside to cool.   (I put the pan in the frige while I mix the other items.)

Cream the next 3 items.

Whip the evaporated milk until it can stand in peeks. Add Cooled Jell-o mixture. Continue to whip.

Blend in the Cream Cheese mixture.

Graham Cracker Crust:
Melt the butter.   Stir in the sugar.   Add the finely cruched crackers.   toss to mix well.   (I put them in a large Zip Lock bag and shake.)  

Press the crumbs into the bottom of your 9X13 inch pan - reserving a few crumbs to sprinkle across the top of the cheese cake.

Pour the Cheese cake mixture onto the crust and sprinkle a few crumbs over the top.   Chill in frige for a few hours.   Cake should be light and a little fluffyas far as cheese cakes go.
