Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs or 1 1/2 cups finely crumbed vanilla wafers
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons butter, melted
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened (chilled cream cheese results in a grainy texture)
4 eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
16 ounces sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat over 350 degrees.
  • Butter bottom of 9" springform pan. Mix together crust ingredients and press onto bottom of pan.
  • Cream the cream cheese with electric mixer until light and fluffy (medium speed for 8-10 minutes); add 3/4 cup sugar. Beat until incorporated, occasionally scraping sides of bowl.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing just until blended.
  • Stir in vanilla extract. Pour into prepared pan; bake approximately 35-40 minutes. Approximately three inches from the sides should be firm with the center jiggly.
  • In the meantime, in a small bowl combine topping ingredients and stir until sugar dissolves; set aside.
  • After baking remove pan from oven and carefully spread sour cream topping beginning from the outer edge towards center. Return to oven for 10 minutes; remove and let cool to room temperature. Chill.
