- **Make the Crust:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a 9x13 inch baking pan, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup melted margarine, and ¼ cup granulated sugar. Mix with a fork until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan to form the crust.
- Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
- **Make the Filling:** In a large bowl, beat 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened, with 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Beat until light and fluffy.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
- **Bake:** Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes.
- **Cool:** Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. Then, remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
- **Make the Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup sour cream, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.

- **Bake Topping:** Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
