Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Alternatively, use digestive biscuits for a similar taste.
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar Can substitute with brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Melted; substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Ensure it's pure for the best results.
For the Filling
  • 16 ounces Cream Cheese Philadelphia brand is recommended.
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar Can use a sugar alternative for a lower-calorie option.
  • 3 large Eggs Should be at room temperature for even mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla is favored for its stronger taste.

Equipment

  • 9-inch Springform Pan
  • Food processor
  • Electric mixer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a food processor, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pulse until it resembles wet sand. Press into the base of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add granulated sugar and vanilla, blending until smooth.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition to avoid overmixing.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan, spreading evenly.
  6. Bake for 22-25 minutes, until the center jiggles slightly. Avoid overbaking.
  7. Turn off the oven and crack the door open. Allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 45-60 minutes.
  8. Transfer the cheesecake to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
