2 Eggs

A few squirts Non-stick spray

Directions for Easy Cheesecake Recipe

1
Make the crust
Preheat Oven to 350.Spray a metal or glass pie pan with non-stick spray.Mix the melted margarine, 3 tablespoons of sugar and the graham crackers and spread to cover the bottom of the pan. A glass pan requires 15 square graham crackers; a metal pan only uses 10.
2
Make the filling
Microwave the cream cheese until soft.Add beaten eggs and 1/2 cup of sugar.Stir very well until almost all lumps are out. This is the great part about this cheesecake recipe; there is no need to use a mixer.Pour into pie shell.
3
Bake the cheesecake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, but you need to watch it closely for burning. It may be necessary to turn it down a little. Any cheesecake recipe can quickly go awry if left unattended.Chill before serving. This cheesecake recipe tastes like boiled custard if you serve it warm. This may be something you like, but I let it chill before serving.You can top it with cherries or whatever cheesecake topping you desire. It makes a great holiday dessert.
