  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sour cream

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the flour and sour cream to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until well combined.
  5. Pour the cream cheese filling over the crust in the prepared pan.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
  7. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  8. Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cheesecake, then remove the sides of the springform pan.
  9. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
  10. Serve chilled and garnish with your favorite fruit sauce or fresh berries.
