Plain Cheesecake

Happy Mother's Day everyone!  I made mine a cheesecake.

Crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar

Cheesecake filling:
3 packages (8 ounces each) softened cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 egg whites
1 cup whipping cream 

Combine crust ingredients to make crust; press into bottom and up sides of a greased 9 inch spring form pan. Chill 1 hour or until firm.

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, and vanilla until fluffy. Add egg whites; beat on low until just blended. Stir in cream.

Pour the cream cheese filling into the crust. 

Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until center is nearly set. Refrigerate overnight. 

*I always wrap the bottom of my springform pan in foil so butter doesn't leak out and make a mess*

Kelsey's Pub and Restaurant Thanksgiving

Kelsey's was one of the few places selling a Thanksgiving for 2 and it was only $75.  It came with turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing with sausage, green bean casserole gravy, cranberry sauce, and rolls with a honey butter.  I ordered an additional apple pie too.  It was a perfect amount and I managed to get everything reheated ready to eat in 1 hour.
