Notes

If you don't have Graham crackers, digestive biscuits or plain sweet cookies work perfectly as a substitute. For a variation, try using walnuts instead of pecans for a slightly different flavor. Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature to ensure a smooth batter. This cheesecake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and also freezes well for longer storage. Simply thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
