Filling

Preparation

Crust Preparation

1. Prepare the crust

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well coated.

2. Form the crust

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the back of a measuring cup to pack it tightly and evenly.

3. Pre-bake the crust

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool while preparing the filling.

Filling Preparation

4. Mix the filling

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

5. Add sugar and sour cream

Gradually add in the granulated sugar and continue mixing until well combined. Then, add the sour cream and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

6. Incorporate the eggs

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

7. Add flour

Finally, sprinkle in the all-purpose flour and mix until just incorporated. The filling should be smooth and creamy.

Baking

8. Combine and bake

Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

9. Bake the cheesecake

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

10. Cool down

Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door ajar for 1 hour to cool slowly, which helps prevent cracking.

11. Chill the cheesecake

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before removing from the springform pan and serving.
