Lemon Cheesecake

Lemon Cheesecake is creamy, smooth, and loaded with citrus flavor

Ingredients:

    Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).

  2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.

  3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Beat until fully combined.

  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream until smooth.

  5. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.

  6. Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  7. Optionally, top with whipped cream or fresh lemon slices before serving.
