1½ cups graham cracker crumbs

2tablespoons granulated sugar

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

6tablespoons unsalted butter

3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, room temperature

1½ cups granulated sugar

Cut each package of cream cheese into 6 pieces and place all in a large stainless mixing bowl. Beat cream cheese in a mixer on low speed until very smooth. Scrape bowl and beaters/paddle with a large rubber spatula and continue to beat on low speed while adding the sugar. Scrape bowl and beaters. Add eggs one at a time, making sure each is incorporated into the batter before adding the next. Mix in vanilla and lemon zest. With the large rubber spatula, carefully fold in the sour cream in three additions; be sure the batter is homogenous.
