Honey Cheesecake with Blackberries




This was absolutely delicious! I don't usually eat cheesecake because it is so rich. However, the honey and tartness from the berries just brought this dessert to a whole new level. Happy Cooking!


HONEY CHEESECAKE

2 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. honey
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 c. dairy sour cream
1 tbsp. grated lemon peel
2 tsp. cornstarch

HONEY CHEESECAKE CRUST:

1 1/4 c. flour
1/2 c. ground walnuts
1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Add 1/3 cup each honey and melted butter to flour, ground walnuts and cinnamon; mix well. Press into bottom and up sides of 8 inch pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes until lightly browned.
Blend cream cheese with honey until smooth. Beat in eggs and yolks. Add remaining ingredients; beat until smooth. Turn into prepared crust and bake at 300 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until set. Cool and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled before serving. Makes 8 servings. Tip: Lightly drizzle top of cheesecake with additional honey if desired.
