This is a Philadelphia cream cheese(Kraft) recipe and it sounds yummy and a nice change of pace from the usual chocolate, cherry etc. cheesecakes. A tip that was listed is that you can make this ahead of time, pop it in the freezer,ready to serve for up to 3 months! Store right in the springform pan covered in plastic wrap and just thaw in the refrigerator when ready to use.

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup flour

1 lemon juice, & rind
