Simple Lemon Cheesecake Slice
Ingredients:
2 cups crushed digestive biscuits
½ cup melted butter
16 oz cream cheese, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
½ cup sour cream
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
Mix crushed biscuits with melted butter until combined.
Press mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to form the base.
Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool slightly.
In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each.
Stir in sour cream, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla until creamy.
Pour filling over the cooled base and smooth the top.
Bake for 30–35 minutes until the center is just set.
Turn off oven, leave the door slightly open, and let cool inside for 1 hour.
Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours before slicing.
