Directions: |
Directions:Heat oven to 350'.
Crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and melted butter. Press into bottom of an 8-inch spring form pan. (I usually spray the bottom of pan as well as adding parchment paper cut to size of pan, makes it easier to get out.
Cheesecake: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Pour mixture over pre-pared pie crust.
To minimize cracking, place a shallow pan of hot water in lower part of the oven during baking.
Baking: Bake at 350' for 50 minutes (until the center is set). Remove from oven and spread the sour cream on top of cake. Return to oven and bake an additional 5 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. If using a can topping, spread on now.
The most important part of this is to completely refrigerate over night. If using fresh fruit, garnish when serving.
