Total Time:270 minutes
Yield:12 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup granulated sugar
16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes or until it’s lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar and continue mixing until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix again. One at a time, incorporate the eggs, ensuring each one is fully mixed before adding the next. Mix in the sour cream and flour until the batter is smooth.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle. Once done, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for about an hour.
In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the strawberries and let them sit for about 30 minutes to release their juices.
After letting the cheesecake cool in the oven, transfer it to the fridge and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and place it on a serving plate. Top with the strawberry mixture and drizzle some of the juices over the cheesecake. Slice and serve chilled.
