THE VANILLA SLICE / CREAM CHEESE & GRAHAM CRUST
A smooth filling. A properly chilled slice.
Softened cream cheese mixes more evenly with the butter and sugar. Add the remaining filling ingredients, pour into the prepared crust, and keep the cooling and chilling stages distinct.

KITCHEN NOTES
Give the cake a smooth, cold finish.
- Start with softened ingredients
- Blend the cream cheese, cannabutter and sugar together before adding milk, eggs, sour cream, vanilla and flour. Scrape the bowl so dense pockets do not remain.
- Cool on a rack, then refrigerate
- King Arthur’s pie-style cheesecake uses a rack after baking. Refrigerate this dairy-and-egg cake within two hours after baking, or one hour if the room is above 90°F. A five-hour hold in a switched-off oven is not a cooling method to follow.
- Slice after the filling sets
- Chill until the center is set and the cake is cold. No tested chilling duration or slice count is given, so count the portions you actually cut.
Measure the batch. Label the portions.
Account for all ⅓ cup cannabutter across the cake. Keep it refrigerated, covered, clearly labeled and secured. Fruit toppings are optional; they do not change the infusion already in the filling.
Keep cannabis food labeled and locked away from children and pets. Effects can take hours; avoid taking more while waiting.
