Cheesecake Base

Method

Cheesecake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheesecake Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Add the sour cream and beat until incorporated. Finally, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and crack the door, allowing the cheesecake to cool slowly for 1 hour.

  4. 4

    Chill

    Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
