INSTRUCTIONS
CRUST FILLING TOPPING Heat oven to 350°F. In medium bowl, combine crust ingredients; mix well. Press in bottom and 1/2 inch up sides of 10 or 9 inch springform pan. Bake at 350°F for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine cream cheese and sugar; beat at low speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Reserve 1/2 cup pie filling for topping; refrigerate. Add remaining pie filling, sour cream and grated lemon peel; blend well. Pour filling over crust in pan; spread evenly. Bake at 350°F. For 10 inch pan, bake 60 to 70 minutes or until center is almost set; for 9 inch pan, bake 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes. (To minimize cracking, place shallow pan half full of hot water on lower oven rack during baking.) Cool on wire rack for 1 hour. Cover; refrigerate at least 24 hours. In small microwave-safe bowl, combine jelly and lemon juice. Microwave on High for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring once. With wire whisk, stir until smooth. Cool completely.
