+ 1 tsp. ground cinnamon + 2 Tbsp. plus 1 cup sugar + 5 Tbsp. butter, melted + 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature + 1 c. sour cream + 4 eggs + 1 tsp. vanilla extract What to do:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray; set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons sugar; mix well. Add butter and mix until crumbs are thoroughly coated. Pour into pan and with your hand, press crumbs until they evenly cover the bottom of the pan. 3. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sour cream, remaining 1 cup sugar, the eggs, and vanilla until thoroughly combined and mixture is smooth. Pour into crust and place springform pan on sheet pan. 4. Bake 15 minutes, then turn oven temperature to 200°F. Bake about 1 hour, or until cheesecake is slightly wiggly in the center. Turn off oven, crack oven door open with a wooden spoon, and let cheesecake cool in the oven about 1 hour. Remove from oven and when cooled completely, run a thin, sharp knife around the edge of the cheesecake. Refrigerate, preferably overnight.
