## **Instructions**
### **Step 1: Prepare the Crust**
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
3. Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, creating a firm crust.
4. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and set it aside to cool while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
### **Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling**
1. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the granulated sugar and mix until well combined.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and flour.
4. Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
**Step 3: Bake the Cheesecake**
1. Place the cheesecake in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly.
2. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. This helps prevent cracking.
3. After cooling, transfer the cheesecake to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible.
