For the American cheesecake, preheat the oven to 170 °C. Place butter cookies in a plastic bag and crumble with a rolling pin.
Melt the butter and add the crumbs. Pour this into a greased pan and press until smooth. Form a rim about 2 cm high.
Place this in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. Then place in the oven for 10 minutes and then chill again for 15 minutes.
Mix the sugar, vanilla sugar, eggs, a little lemon juice and cream cheese with a food processor or by hand, then add the sour cream and mix until smooth.
Pour this mixture on the crumb base and then bake at 190 ° for about 20 minutes. Finally, let the cheesecake cool and put it in the fridge for at least 6 hours.
Preparation Tip:
I would really only take double cream cream cheese for the American Cheesecake! Habs also once tried with a leaner cream cheese and that has also unfortunately "lean" tasted.
