Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs for the crust
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 packages cream cheese softened
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar for sweetness
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.5 cup sour cream for creaminess
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice for flavor
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the sour cream and lemon juice until fully combined.
  • Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust and gently spread it out evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours. Top with fresh blueberries before serving.

Notes

For best flavor, let the cheesecake chill overnight. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
