Time 13h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
8 graham crackers (each 2 1/2 by 5 inches), broken into pieces
2 tablespoons light-brown sugar
3 bars (8 ounces each) cream cheese, room temperature
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
5 large eggs, room temperature
1 pint sour cream (2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan. In a food processor, place graham crackers and brown sugar; process until finely ground. Add butter; process until moist crumbs form. Press mixture into bottom and 2 inches up sides of pan; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl. Pour filling into pan; bake until light brown and center is almost set, about 50 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, raise heat to 450 degrees. In a bowl, combine sour cream, remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla. After cake has cooled 15 minutes, spread topping with a spatula, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Bake 10 minutes.
  • Let cool, then refrigerate in pan at least 12 hours. Run a knife around edge of pan before releasing sides.

The cheesecake was good, but I think it could have been better if I had used a higher quality cream cheese.
