CHEESECAKE WITH A CAKE MIX

1 package yellow cake mix
4 eggs
2 Tablespoons oil
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
3 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
Pie filling--cherry, pineapple, blueberry, strawberry, etc.

Preheat oven to 300F. Measure out 1 cup of dry cake mix; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, stir together remaining dry cake mix, 1 egg, and oil (mixture will be crumbly). Press crust mixture evenly into bottom and 3/4 of the way up the sides of a greased 13" x9" x2" pan. (I just put it on the bottom.) In the same bowl, blend cream cheese and sugar together. Add 3 eggs and reserved cake mix; beat 1 minute at medium speed. At low speed gradually add milk, lemon juice, and vanilla; mix until smooth. Pour into crumb crust. Bake at 300º for 45 to 55 minutes, or until center is firm. Cool to room temperature. Spoon pie filling over cheesecake; cover and chill 1 hour before serving. Store in refrigerator. Baked cheesecake can be frozen with a covering of foil.
