32 graham crackers, crushed
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 3/4 cups white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh lemon peel

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Bake the crust until lightly browned, about 8 minutes; allow to cool in the pan. Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with 1 3/4 cup of sugar, lemon peel, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined. Beat in the eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, until the filling is free of lumps; gently fold in the whipped cream.

Remove the cheesecake gently and carefully from the oven, and allow to cool to room temperature while still in pan; refrigerate overnight. Release the pan and gently remove to slice and serve the cheesecake.
