- 32 ounces cream cheese
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

- 2 cups sour cream

- Crust: Crumb the cookies, mix with the graham cracker crumbs and melt butter and press the mixture in the bottom and about an inch up the sides of a 9 1/2-inch springform pan.
- Batter: Beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time without excessive beating to avoid removing the air, followed by mixing in the remaining batter ingredients.
- Pour into the pan and bake at 350F for about an hour or until the center of the surface is somewhat solid.
- Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes.
- Topping: Mix together the sour cream, sugar and limoncello and spread evenly over the top.
