It is Girl Scout season and of course I had to make up some yummy recipes with their cookies. My daughter is a Girl Scout and has started selling cookies. Here is the link, in case you want to order! We can ship to your location.
Since I literally have a hundred boxes sitting on my kitchen table, I thought I would take our favorite cookies and make this first recipe. I basically substituted the graham cracker crust for the Trefoils cookies crust. It made my cheesecake even better!

To make the crust, mix the Trefoil cookies, 3 tb sugar and 1/3 cup butter in a bowl and then put in a greased pie dish. Smash it down flat in the pie dish. Set aside.

Next mix up the cream cheese, 1 cup sugar and vanilla with mixer until well blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended. Pour over crust.
