"Only four ingredient for this amazing easy cheesecake but it does requite some chilling time. If you have fat content issues, you can always use fat-free cream cheese and fat-free cool whip to lessen the fat blow."

Step by Step Method
The most important part of this recipe, is to leave the cream cheese out for a couple hours at room temperature. The cream cheese will become soft and smooth. The importance of this is to create a smooth texture. Not doing so, will create horrible lumps of cream cheese that will ruin the flavor of this pie
FOR THE CRUST
Step 1
Mix all crust ingredients until it sticks together. Pat into the pan (anysize pan you like to use).
FOR THE FILLING
Step 2
When your cream cheese is softened enough, in a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients. NOTE: the lemon/lime juice must come last. The reaction of the citrus juice will start to harden your mixture almost immediately.
Step 3
On the low speed of you hand mixer, blend well. Around 2 minutes of so is plenty, just make sure all ingredients are incorporated. Immediately pour mixture into the prepared crust.
Step 4
Refrigerate for an hour to and hour and a half. Serve chilled and enjoy
