Classic Cheesecake
This rich and velvety cheesecake is a timeless favorite, boasting a smooth filling on a buttery graham cracker crust. Follow these simple steps to bring this delicious treat to your table!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it lightly.
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until blended well, and then press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form the crust. Bake the crust for about 8 minutes, then remove it from the oven and allow it to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar using an electric mixer. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and lemon juice until fully incorporated.
- Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the edges are set, but the center slightly wobbles when you gently shake the pan.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about 1 hour. This will help prevent cracking.
- Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set completely.
- Before serving, you can top your cheesecake with fresh fruits or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for added flair. Slice and enjoy the heavenly taste of this classic dessert!
