Grandma's Cheesecake

Recipe courtesy of biochemgirl
Crust
2 cups finely ground graham crackers (about 30 squares)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 stick unsalted butter, melted 

1st set of ingredients
1 lb. container cottage cheese (put through sieve, a must)
2  8 oz. containers of cream cheese
1  16 oz. container of sour cream
4 eggs
1.5 C sugar

2nd set of ingredients
1.5 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 lb. melted margarine
3 tablespoons corn starch
3 tablespoons flour
0.25 Cup milk

For the crust, mix the 2 ingredients in a bowl. Press into a 8 or 9 inch spring form pan as high along the sides as you like.

For the cheesecake, mix the 1st set of ingredients and then add 2nd set of ingredients, mix until smooth. Bake at 325 for 1 hour (let stand in oven for several hours after shutting oven off, without opening oven door). My grandmother tops hers with strawberries or blueberries but it’s just as good plain.
