Ingredients

• 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Strawberries, sliced (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Mint leaves (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup sugar. Mix until well combined and the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the greased springform pan to create the crust. Place in the fridge to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and 3/4 cup sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract and beat until incorporated. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing until just blended after each addition.

Step 6

Fold in the sour cream gently until the mixture is smooth and uniform.

Step 7

Pour the cream cheese filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the center is slightly set but still jiggly.

Step 9

Turn off the oven, crack the oven door slightly, and allow the cake to cool inside for 1 hour. This helps prevent cracking.

Step 10

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 11

Just before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with sliced strawberries and mint leaves, if desired.

Step 12

Slice, serve chilled, and enjoy your Elswet's Girl Party Cream Cheese Cake!
