Cheese cake



Not really cheese cake.

*1 can Eagle Brand (that's the stuff with so much sugar it'll set your teeth on edge)
*grated lemon rind of 1 entire lemon soaked in Eagle brand milk overnight
*juice of two lemons because they weren't very juicy
*added 3 little triangles of Happy Cow creamed cheese (they're tiny individual portions)
*added 1/2 8oz tub of sour cream (mathematically that comes out to 4 oz.)
*2 jumbo eggs (dismayed to discover I broke one egg inside the carton that had to be discarded because who knows what got into it)
*touch of salt
*Some heavy whipping cream I don't know how much, maybe a cup
The whole mixture whipped to within an inch of its life until it lightened up as much as it could

Graham cracker crust in the usual way, with cinnamon, clove and nutmeg and sugar

baked the whole thing for about 1hour, 30 minutes in bain marie, that means "water bath" in French, at 350℉ which is fairly low, no wait, that's medium.

Giant strawberries diced that were rather bitter so I added sugar plus a dash of salt, gave them a little crush to show who's boss.

Mint grown in AeroGarden on top of the refrigerator.
