Cheesecake Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium 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 the crust.

Make the filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until well combined. Add the sour cream and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth. Finally, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Combine and bake
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

Cool and serve
Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for an additional hour to cool gradually. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
