Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 24 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons espresso powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large Eggs

Instructions

  1. Step 1:

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

  2. Step 2:

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add sour cream, espresso powder, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just incorporated.

  3. Step 3:

    Pour the filling over the crust in the springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.

  4. Step 4:

    Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
