Introduction
Learning how to make a cheesecake will take you about 15 minutes—that's how long this cheesecake takes to assemble after you've made the crust. If you don't want to make your own crust, you can purchase two prepared 8 inch crusts in the supermarket, and have two smaller cheesecakes from this recipe. If you do use the 8 inch pie crusts to make the cheesecake recipe, the baking time should be reduced to 45-50 minutes. -
Step 1: What You'll Need to Make Cheesecake
- Graham cracker crust, in a 9 inch springform pan
- 2 8 ounce bars of cream cheese
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
Step 2: How to Make Cheesecake
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F
- Cream the sugar and cream cheese with an electric mixer
- Add eggs one at time, blending well after each egg.
- Add vanilla and sour cream, and mix until combined
- Pour filling into prepared crust.
- Bake for 60 to 75 minutes in the preheated oven. The cake is done when the edges are cooked. The center may still juggle a bit, but will settle as the cheesecake cools.
- Run a knife around the outside edge of the cheesecake to loosen it, but do not remove the outer ring of the springform pan.
- Cool the cake completely before refrigerating.
- Chill cheesecake for at least 1-2 hours before serving.
Step 3: How to Make Cheesecake Tips
- Have the cream cheese at room temperature before beginning to ensure a smooth well blended filling.
- If you want a sour cream topping for the cheesecake, blend 1 1/3 cups of sour cream with 1/3 cup of sugar, and spread on top of the cheesecake after its baked. Return it to the oven and bake at 300 degrees for 10 minutes to set the cheesecake topping. This can help hide any cracks that appeared during the initial baking.
- Substitute a chocolate crumb crust or an Oreo cookie crust for the graham cracker crust.
