==Description==
Not quite a cheesecake and not quite a true torte, this is a very old recipe from my grandmother. This is a wonderfully creamy dessert, best served with a nice cup of coffee.
==Ingredients==
* 2 lbs. small curd cottage cheese
* 1½ cups sugar
* 1 tbsp. flour
* 2 tbsp. cornstarch
* 4 eggs, beaten
* 1 cup milk
* 1 tsp. vanilla extract
* pinch of salt
=== Topping ===
* 2 cups cinnamon graham cracker crumbs
* ½ cup sugar
* ⅔ cup melted butter
* ½ tsp. cinnamon
* pinch of salt
==Directions==
# Sift the dry ingredients together and add to the cottage cheese. Beat the eggs well and add to the cheese along with the milk. Add the vanilla and blend well.
# To make the topping, crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix with the sugar and melted butter.
# Line the sides of a 13 x 9" pan with the crumbs, reserving some for the top. Pour the cheese mix and smooth it out thoroughly. Top with the reserved crumbs, then bake for an hour at 350°F.
# Leave it to cool in the pan, then refrigerate. Serve cold along with a cup of coffee.
