Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Mix well.
Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form a crust. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the sour cream, heavy cream, eggs, cornstarch, and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar until smooth.
Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and just begins to bubble, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the sour cream filling into the prepared crust and smooth it out with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Before serving, sprinkle the top with powdered sugar for a light dusting of sweetness.
Slice and enjoy this creamy, tangy dessert!
