Recipe View 4 hrs Remove from the oven and let cool completely at room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving. (240 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture.
To prevent the crust from burning, you can wrap the bottom of the springform pan in aluminum foil or place it in a water bath while baking.
Gently tap the pan on the counter after pouring in the batter to release any trapped air bubbles.
Be careful not to overbake the cheesecake; it should still have a slight wobble in the center when you turn off the oven.
Allow the cheesecake to cool gradually to minimize cracking. Don't rush the cooling process.

    I found that using full-fat sour cream makes the cheesecake extra rich and decadent. Definitely worth it!

    This recipe is a game-changer! My cheesecake came out perfectly creamy and smooth. The hint of cinnamon in the crust is genius!

    I added a swirl of raspberry jam on top before baking, and it was divine! This recipe is so versatile. I am going to try a chocolate version next time!
