Leave your cream cheese out for a bit so that it softens before you begin, as this will make this recipe a bit more easier when you get down to making the filling.
Start with the Crust
In a large bowl, add in the ground graham crackers, vanilla extract, melted butter, and powdered sugar.
Mix until fully combined and transfer this into the springform pan, evenly distributing the crumbs all over the bottom and sides of the pan.
Set it in the fridge and let it chill while you prepare the filling.
CBD Lemon Cheesecake Filling
Grab a small bowl and fill it with a small amount of cold water. Thoroughly whisk the gelatin into the water using a fork or a small whisk. Set it aside while you complete the next step.
In another large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, icing sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, zest of a lemon and Simply Add CBD™ Baking Oil. Important: Mix thoroughly at this step for a few extra minutes to ensure the Simply Add CBD™ Baking Oil is dispersed throughout the mixture. This will ensure each piece of CBD lemon cheesecake has a more even dosage of CBD.
Grab the small bowl with the gelatin water and place it into another larger that is filled a few inches with hot water. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
Add in the whipped cream and dissolved gelatin in the large bowl with the CBD cream cheese mixture and mix thoroughly.
Pour this mixture into the cooled graham cracker crust and spread evenly using a spatula.
Let it set in fridge for about 2-3 hours.
Remove it the spring form pan, cut a slice, and enjoy your Simply Add CBD™ Lemon Cheesecake!
