   1       lb           Cream cheese
   1       pt           Sour cream
   1       c            Sugar
   2       tb           Flour
   1       t            Vanilla
   2       tb           Lemon juice -- fresh is best
   5                    Eggs

   *Could use Cinnamon Crisp Cookies instead.
   Blend the sour cream and cream cheese well and add
  the egg yolks (which have been beaten first) and the
  other ingredients. Whip egg whites until stiff and
  fold cheese and yolk mixture in CAREFULLY. Make sure
  it is all incorperated. Pour into a springform pan and
  bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Then leave door
  closed for one hour; and then oven door ajar for last5
  hour (3 in all). Cake is creamy and smooth and may
  crack a bit on top. Good reason to make a strawberry
  topping.
  This cake was given to Jeannie Toll by one of Mort's
  old girlfriends about 37 years ago. She gave it to me
  when Mort and I told her about our engaement...hence
  the title. Betty Mondress gave me her 'recipe' card as
  mine dissappeared years ago. I used my copy of the
  LEVITTOWN SISTERHOOD COOKBOOK; (Pa..circa 1957) until
  it disintegrated. Of course i submitted it as my
  own...<G>. Ellen; did you know that? Mom was 'bad'in
  her younger days!!!
