Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, browned

  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Incorporate the vanilla extract and scraped seeds from the vanilla bean.
  6. Blend in the sour cream until the mixture is smooth.
  7. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust in the springform pan.
  8. Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Cool the cheesecake in the pan for an hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  10. Serve chilled, cutting into wedges as desired.

Notes

Serve plain or with toppings like whipped cream or fruit. For extended storage, freeze the cheesecake wrapped tightly.
