Ingredients
- 1-½ Cups Graham cracker crumbs

- 14 Ounce Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tespoon Vanilla extract
Optional Toppings

Instructions
- To prepare the crust, melt the butter by microwaving in 30-second increments. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar.
- Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a springform pan, covering the bottom and up the sides of the pan just slightly. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, until smooth. Add in the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture into the springform pan. Smooth out evenly. Move the cheesecake to the freezer to chill for 8 hours or overnight. When you are ready to serve the cheesecake, remove it from the freezer and allow it to thaw for 20-30 minutes on the countertop. If desired, top the cheesecake with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure you whip your filling mixture until everything is smooth.
- This cheesecake needs to chill, so do not skimp on the time. Trust me it is worth the wait.
