Cheesecake Pie with Rhubarb Sauce
With the topping and pie waiting in the fridge, dessert is ready at a moment's notice. We used Dad's Original Oatmeal cookies for the crust; other brands may require slightly more butter to moisten the crumbs.

Suggested Recipes
-
1-3/4 cups (425 mL) crushed oatmeal cookies
3 tbsp (45 mL) unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
1-1/2 pkgs (8 oz/250 g each) cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup (75 mL) granulated sugar
1/3 cup (75 mL) sour cream
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1 tsp (5 mL) grated orange rind
Sauce:
4 cups (1 L) chopped fresh rhubarb
1 cup (250 mL) granulated sugar
2 tbsp (25 mL) cornstarch
2 tbsp (25 mL) orange juice
Preparation:
Filling: Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat cream cheese with sugar until fluffy; beat in sour cream, egg, egg yolk and orange rind. Spread in pie shell.
Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven until shine disappears and edge is set but centre still jiggles slightly, about 30 minutes. Let cool on rack. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.
Sauce: In saucepan, stir rhubarb with sugar over medium heat until boiling and sugar melts, about 3 minutes. Whisk cornstarch with orange juice; whisk into rhubarb mixture and boil until thickened and opaque, about 1 minute. Let cool. Serve with cheesecake. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate pie and topping separately for up to 24 hours.)
