Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just blended.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door ajar for 1 hour.

  4. 4

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let the cheesecake cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. Slice and enjoy!
