Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crust)
  • 4 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar (for filling)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. Blend in sour cream and vanilla.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated. Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is just set. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • For the topping, heat strawberry jam in a saucepan until smooth. Let cool slightly, then spread over the chilled cheesecake. Arrange fresh strawberries on top.
  • Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Make sure cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth filling.
  • You can prepare the cheesecake a day ahead for the best flavor.
  • If cracks form on the cheesecake, top it with extra strawberries for a perfect finish.
