Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ⅔ cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup espresso, cooled

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well mixed. Press this mixture into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a mixer until smooth. Gradually add sugar, mixing until well combined.
