Preparation Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Crust
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.

Mix the Filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the granulated sugar and mix until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Bake the Cheesecake
Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly ajar for an hour to prevent cracking.

Chill and Serve
After cooling, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve as desired.
