Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 5 tablespoons melted butter
  • 40 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature)
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (at room temperature)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs (at room temperature)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press into a springform pan and bake for 7 minutes.
  2. Lower the oven to 325°F. Blend cream cheese until smooth, add sugar, sour cream, and vanilla; mix until fully combined.
  3. Whisk eggs separately and mix gently into the cream cheese mixture on low speed to avoid air bubbles.
  4. Tap the bowl to release air, pour filling into the crust, then bake for about 30 minutes at 325°F followed by another 45 minutes at 250°F.
  5. Turn off the oven, let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour with the door ajar. Chill in the fridge for at least six hours before serving.
