Family Recipe: Great Grandma Miller’s Ultimate Cheesecake

Jake’s Mom shared Great Grandma Miller’s Ultimate Cheesecake recipe with me before we were married.  I love that this recipe has been in the family for years and it is a great base to many amazing cheesecake recipes.  You can top the cheesecake with cherries, chocolate, strawberries or anything that you enjoy with cheesecake.

Great Grandma Miller’s Ultimate Cheesecake:

  • 1 cup crushed Graham Crackers or Chocolate Cookies
  • 1 tablespoon melted Butter
  • 5 (8 oz) packages Cream Cheese
  • 1 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 5 Eggs
  • 2 Egg Yolks
  • 1/4 cup Heavy Cream

Mix crushed graham crackers and melted butter then press into a 9 inch springform.   Mix cream cheese, sugar, flour and vanilla at high speed.  Beat in eggs and yolks one at a time until smooth.  Beat in cream.  Pour on top of the crust.  Bake at 450 for 10 minutes and one hour at 250 degrees.  Cool on rack for two hours.  Top with your favorite cheesecake topping (strawberries, cherries, chocolate, blueberries, etc…).
