What You Need
Crust
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup finely chopped almonds
- 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
- 2 cup finely chopped vanilla wafer
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
Filling
- 1 1/2 lbs cream cheese

- 1/4 cup flour

- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
What To Do
Preheat oven to 325
Mix all crust ingredients together and press into a buttered 9 inch springform pan. Try and go about 1.5 inches up the side
Beat cream cheese together ( I used a hand mixer) you want it to be light
Add sugar and beat in slowly.
Next add the eggs in one at a time. Make sure each is fully beaten in before adding another one.
Next add flour, vanilla, and lemon juice and mix well.
Add sour cream and beat in.
Pour the mixture into the crust – I had a little mixture left over.
Place in the oven on the top rack for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Turn off oven open the door ( just a crack) and leave cheesecake there for one hour.
Place the cheesecake in the fridge for about 8 hours ( the more you wait the flavors will become better).
Enjoy!

Hi! Looks YUMMY! Can’t wait to try, thanks for posting! I have one question…when placing in the fridge to cool, do you cover it or leave it uncovered? I’m going to try this weekend, can’t wait. My hubby thanks you already 🙂

I covered it with a paper towel

Ok…so just to make sure…bake at 325 for one hour 15 min then after that turn off and crack the door and let it sit for another hour?

I doubled the recipe to make sure I had enough to fill 2 10″ pie pans…Big mistake! I ended up making 6 cheesecakes lol. I called a few friends to come pick up whole cheesecakes. I topped them with a fresh strawberry glaze that a made from a recipe on allreceipes.com This was an overall success despite the extra cheesecakes..

I am thinking of doing this in cupcake pans and giving away with christmas cookies. Is this freezable do you know?
Sue
This sounds good but I have a recipe that claims to be “THE” Cheesecake Factory recipe and it is somewhat different. I might like to compare, the one I make seems to be more dense and thicker. You never know!! 🙂
Brenda
Sue….. can I get your recipe as well?? thanks!

I knew a sales rep who had Cheesecake Factory as one of his accounts. He told me they used neufchatel cheese.

I need some help please. I have made this recipe various times now, but today for some reason (maybe the lack of sleep) I have forgoten to add the sour cream to the cheescake. 🙁 Does anybody know if it will taste weird or disgusting without it. Please help I have no money or time to make anyother one for tomorrow. Thank you
Elizabeth Bush
I’ve made this several times and every time I do, it cracks open during the cool down time…any suggestions.

I used to work in a bakery n we would do the trick of leaving the oven door open to keep from cracking without overbaking. First, you need to reach in and run a butter knife or offset spatula around the edges CAREFULLY. Many times the cheesecake raises above the crust or edge of the pan and as it cools, it deflates. When that happens, wherever it sticks to the pan it starts a crack. If you cool it too quickly or move it around a lot it’ll crack. So next time, do the knife trick and just crack the door enough to let a little heat out but not a ton. I usually fold a dish towel and put it in the door. Then I leave it overnight or until it’s totally cool. This also solves the problem of ‘how do I cover it until I can put it in the fridge’.
