Cheesecake

*This recipe was originally for a 10" dutch oven so I would double or at least make 1.5x the amount of crust that it calls for below.  If you end up having extra crust you can use it as topping. The Cheesecake part ends up being a good amount though for a 12".
Crust
  • 1 package honey graham crackers, crushed (about 1¾ cup)
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 5½ tablespoons salted butter, melted
Mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter.
Lightly spray the inside of the Dutch oven with baking spray. Press the crumb mixture inside.
Bake for 10 minutes 325 degrees (about 16 coals on top and 7 coals on the bottom) 
Cheesecake
  • 5 packages (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 eggs
  • Baking spray
  • Favorite cheesecake topping
Mix by hand cream cheese, sugar, flour, and vanilla until well blended.
Add sour cream. Mix well.
Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until just blended. Pour over crust.
Bake for about 1 hour or until center is almost set. (I ended up baking mine for about 45 minutes and it turned out just fine)
Loosen cake from side of oven and let cool before serving with favorite fruit topping.
Serves: 12 to 16 slices
