Cheesecake Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan. In a bowl, mix 1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs, 1/3 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheesecake Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the peanut butter and mix until well combined. Then, add the vanilla extract and mix. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Finally, mix in the sour cream until smooth.

  3. 3

    Bake the Cheesecake

    Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust. Bake in the preheated oven for about 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour.

  4. 4

    Chill and Serve

    Remove cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. Garnish with additional whipped cream and peanut butter drizzle if desired.
