Incredibly good cheesecake
This recipe is from my neighbor Shannon Budd. Kevin said he thought this was the best thing that I had ever made.
First Step: Graham cracker crust: 20 squares graham crackers crushed with rolling pin. Combine crushed crumbs with 1/3 cup melted butter 3 tablespoons sugar. Press into "spring form" pan (the kind where the sides come off). Bake 10 minutes @ 350.
In another bowl mix 3 eight ounce softened cream cheese with 1 1/2 cups sugar, 5 eggs, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla Place mix in baked graham cracker crust for approx. 100 minutes (depending on oven). (Note- I only cooked mine for 90 minutes ph)
Topping: Mix pint of sour cream, teaspoon vanilla, and 2 cups powdered sugar. Once cheesecake is done baking, pour topping over top. Cheesecake will fall slightly (don't panic!) and bake additional 10 minutes. Let cool down then place in fridge. Call us when its ready and we'll be right over!

Mama's Chicken Salad
4 whole chicken breasts cooked with salt, pepper and celery sticks
