Cheesecake
- 1
Prepare the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool.

Make the Filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and mix until well combined. Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice; mix until smooth. Finally, add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined.

Assemble the Cheesecake
Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.

Bake the Cheesecake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.

Chill and Serve
After cooling, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight. Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit or whipped cream.
