New York Cheesecake

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup of melted butter
• 32 ounces of cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup of sugar
• 4 large eggs

• 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
2. Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, then press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the sugar, and continue to beat until well combined.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream, vanilla extract, and flour.
5. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the cheesecake is set and slightly golden on top.
7. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly open for another hour to cool slowly.
8. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
