Crust

Flavors (choose one or more)

Method

Preparing the Crust

  1. 1

    Mix the Crust Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Press into the Pan

    Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

Making the Filling

  1. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract, mixing well.

  2. 4

    Add Eggs

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

  3. 5

    Incorporate Flavors

    Add your choice of flavorings (chocolate syrup, fruit puree, lemon zest, or pumpkin puree) and mix until just combined.

Baking the Cheesecake

  1. 6

    Pour and Bake

    Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 60-70 minutes or until the center is set but still jiggles slightly.

  2. 7

    Cooling

    Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.
