This easy, no-bake cheesecake is a nostalgic nod to a classic dessert from Woolworth’s famous lunch counter.
Ingredients
1 package (3 ounces) lemon gelatin
1 cup boiling water
3 cups graham cracker crumbs, divided
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

In a large bowl, whisk together lemon gelatin and boiling water until dissolved; set aside.
In another large bowl, combine 2 cups graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 13x9-in. dish in an even layer.

I remember having this cheesecake at Woolworth and I can't believe I found it. Will give it a try. One of my favorite websites for many cooking and meal planning ideas.
