Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine graham crumbs, coconut, sugar and cinnamon; add melted butter and mix until evenly moistened. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of prepared pan; set aside.
Step 3
Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until very smooth. Add sugar, vanilla, lime zest and juice and beat well for 4 to 5 min. more. Add eggs one at a time; mix well and add sour cream.
Step 4
Pour filling over base and bake until just set, approximately 50 min. To help prevent cake

To serve, release cheesecake from springform pan and slide off of parchment paper onto a serving platter; garnish with toasted coconut and lime zest and slice with a hot dry knife.
