Indulge in the creamy, rich goodness of this Perfect Cheesecake Recipe, a classic dessert that is sure to impress at any gathering. With its buttery graham cracker crust and velvety filling, this cheesecake is a delightful treat for any occasion.
Ingredients:
For the Crust:
• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
• 4 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional, for stability)
For Topping (optional):
• Fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
2. Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer. Bake for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
3. Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
4. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Incorporate Sour Cream: Gently fold in the sour cream and flour (if using) until just combined.
6. Pour Filling into Crust: Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 55-65 minutes or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle.
8. Cool: Turn off the oven and crack open the oven door slightly. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about an hour to prevent cracking.
9. Chill: Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
10. Serve: Before serving, top with fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream if desired. Slice and enjoy!
