Classic Vanilla Cheesecake

This is my favorite cheesecake recipe because it's fail proof and easy. I cooked my cheesecakes in a water bath. You have to cook them about 10 mins longer than the recipe states but they come out creamier.

Crust
8 graham Crackers (approx 1 Cup crushed)
¼ C butter melted
1 Tbsp sugar

Cake
2 pkgs (8 ozs ) cream cheese, softened
½ C sugar
¼ C all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 C sour cream
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Crush graham crackers. Add sugar and crumbs to melted butter. Press crumb mixture into bottom of a 9” springform pan. Bake 10 mins. Cool.
Mix cream cheese until soft and creamy. Add in sugar and flour until well combined. Add eggs and sour cream and beat until smooth. Pour batter over slightly cooled crust. Bake for 50-55 mins until center is just set. Remove from oven. Cool 20 mins on cooling rack. Carefully run sharp knife around edges of cheesecake. Allow to cool to room temp, cover with foil and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled. Release side clamp and remove collar. Top with fresh sliced strawberries or cherrys and serve.
