Beat in limeade concentrate, lime juice, and vanilla. Stir in green food coloring, if desired. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust.
Bake 350 for 15 minutes. Lower the temperature to 200 and bake for 1 hour 10 minutes or till the center no longer looks wet or shiny. Remove the cake from the oven and run a knife around the inside edge of the pan. Chill, uncovered, overnight.
