Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 ¼ cups (105 g) graham cracker crumbs, about 8 sheets of graham crackers, crushed
  • ¼ cup superfine sugar, or granulated
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 2 blocks (8 ounces each) cream cheese, room temperature
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon (20 g) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ½ cups (357 g) heavy whipping cream

Instructions

Crust

  • Spray a 7-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Make sure to get every crumb coated with butter. 
  • Pour the crust into the prepared pan, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides. Set aside.

Filling

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt. Mix at medium speed until soft and smooth, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Switch to the whisk attachment and pour in the heavy cream. Mix at low speed to combine. Then, increase to high and whip until the mixture can hold stiff peaks (3 to 5 minutes).
  • Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
  • Refrigerate until the filling is firm and cold, about 6 hours or overnight.
