Ingredients

• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs

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

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar and mix until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
4. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, flour, and salt. Pour this mixture into the cream cheese mixture and mix until smooth.
6. Pour the cream cheese filling over the crust in the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
7. Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 60-65 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
8. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, run a knife around the edges to loosen the cheesecake from the pan.
9. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
10. Once chilled, remove the sides of the springform pan and transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate.
11. Serve chilled and enjoy!
