Equipment

  • Large Bowl
  • springform pan

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tbsp. sugar
  • 7 tbsp. melted butter
  • 32 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 4 large eggs whisked slightly, room temperature

Instructions

  • Directions:
  • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray your springform pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter, until well combined.
  • Press this mixture into your prepared springform pan, covering the bottom, and slightly up the sides.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add the sugar, sour cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until combined.
  • Slowly add the whisked eggs, mixing, until everything is incorporated.
  • Pour the batter over the crust, and smooth out evenly.
  • Place the cheesecake onto a baking sheet, and bake for 60-70 minutes. The center will still be slightly jiggly, but the sides will be more firm.
  • Once cooked, allow the cheesecake to cool completely, then move to the refrigerator to chill for 8 hours, or over night.
  • Before serving, place blueberries on the cheesecake in a star shape, and fill in with sliced strawberries.
