My favorite, no-fail cheesecake recipe. Found it in a Philly Cream Cheese cookbook. Has served as the basis for several variations.

- Crust shopping list
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs shopping list
- 3 tablespoons sugar shopping list
- 3 tablespoons butter - melted shopping list
- Filling shopping list
- 4 packages cream cheese - 8 ounces each shopping list
- 1 cup sugar shopping list
- 3 tablespoons flour shopping list
- 4 eggs shopping list
- 1 cup sour cream shopping list
- 1 tablespoon vanilla shopping list
- Topping shopping list
- Blueberry or cherry pie filling - home made or canned shopping list
- OR top as desired shopping list
How to make it
- Crust: Combine crumbs, sugar and butter; press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Bake at 325°, 10 minutes.
- Filling: Combine cream cheese, sugar and flour, mixing at medium speed on electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Blend in sour cream and vanilla; pour over crust. Bake at 450°, 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 250°; continue baking 1 hour. Loosen cake from rim of pan; cool before removing rim of pan. Chill.
- Topping: Top with pie filling or desired topping when cooled completely. Sliced fresh fruit glazed with orange marmalade or apricot preserves tastes great and looks really pretty.
