  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a springform pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter; press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and mix until fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition. Then fold in sour cream until combined.
