Ingredients

Servings:12
  • 1 1/2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
  • 5 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
  • 32 ounces Cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • 4 pieces Large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.

  2. 2

    Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, then press firmly into the bottom of the pan and bake for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and airy, ensuring no lumps remain.

  4. 4

    Whisk in the sour cream, vanilla extract, lemon juice, salt, and flour until fully incorporated.

  5. 5

    Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed just until combined to avoid incorporating too much air.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter over the crust and bake at 325°F (160°C) for 75-90 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still wobbles slightly.

  7. 7

    Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door cracked for one hour to prevent cracking.

  8. 8

    Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, before removing from the springform pan.
