Provided by linguinelisa

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

9 inches deep-dish graham cracker crust
12 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 eggs, well beaten
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix cream cheese with the eggs, 1 cup of sugar and vanilla. Pour into graham cracker crust and bake 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool 15 minutes.
  • While pie is cooling, mix sour cream with 1/2 cup sugar. Spread gently over the top and bake 10 minutes more.
  • Cool and then refrigerate for several hours.

Tips:

  • Use heavy cream: Using heavy cream with at least 36% fat will ensure your whipped cream is thick and stable.
  • Chill everything: Chill the heavy cream, beaters, and bowl before whipping. This will help the cream whip up faster and prevent it from becoming grainy.
  • Whip gradually: Start whipping the cream on low speed and gradually increase the speed as the cream thickens. This will help prevent overwhipping.
  • Stop whipping before it's too stiff: Overwhipped cream can become grainy and separated. Stop whipping when the cream holds soft peaks.
  • Add flavorings: Once the cream is whipped, you can add flavorings such as vanilla extract, sugar, or cocoa powder.
