The first time my mother prepared it, we became addicted. We now regularly consume this! Sliced green onions and sharp Cheddar cheese can be used as garnish.

Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups crushed chocolate graham crackers
- ¼ cup butter, melted

- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 1 (12 ounce) box vanilla wafer cookies (such as Nilla®)
- ½ cup cold, brewed coffee
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9×13-inch pan with aluminum foil, making sure to cover the sides and leaving several inches of aluminum foil on each end.
- Mix graham crackers and butter in a bowl until crackers are moist; pat down into the prepared pan.
- Bake in preheated oven until firm, about 12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Beat cream cheese in a bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add sweetened condensed milk; continue beating until incorporated. Blend sour cream and lemon juice into the cream cheese mixture. Chill in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
- Dip each vanilla wafer cookie in the brewed coffee for a few seconds and arrange in a layer onto the cooled crust with about 1/2 inch between each cookie. Spread about 1/3 of the cream cheese mixture over the cookies. Repeat layering of cookies and cream cheese mixture twice more.
- Refrigerate until center is set, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

Reviews
This dessert was pretty good..I halved the recipe and used 6 pre made mini Graham crackers crusts. I did use little less sweetened condensed milk, as I didn’t want the dessert to be overly sweet. I am not sure the combination of lemon juice and coffee is ideal for this ! I might use some vanilla or almond extract and some cream or milk instead of lemon juice next time.
I did not care for this recipe.
I made this for my adult daughter’s birthday, and I added a teaspoon of almond flavoring. Everyone loved it, now my other daughter is making it for my birthday!!
Just made this last night – it was super easy & super delicious!!! Will definitely make it again, everyone loved it! Also, there seemed to be a lot of extra chocolate graham cracker crust – so I sprinkled it on top of each of the layers and on the top of the cheesecake and added the chocolate chips which made it look fancy 🙂
I used the cheese mix and the nella waffers but i put all that into a chocolate bowl with a little graham cracker mix in the bottem and the coffee was a dark roast blend it was GREAT
