Cheesecake Ingredients
Method
Instructions
- 1
Prepare the crust
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust.

Prepare the cheesecake filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and mix until well combined. Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the batter is smooth and creamy.

Combine and bake
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for an additional hour.

Cool and refrigerate
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving for best results.
