Equipment

  • 1 9-inch springform pan
  • 1 Electric mixer
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 Medium saucepan
  • 1 microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Wire rack
  • 1 Baking sheet
  • 1 Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 24 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 12 fresh strawberries washed and dried

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter in a large bowl until combined.
  • Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar together until smooth using an electric mixer.
  • Add vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in sour cream until the batter is smooth.
  • Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes or until the center is set.
  • Let the cheesecake cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge before removing the pan.
  • Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours to set properly.
  • Melt chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth.
  • Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, then place on parchment paper to set.
  • Decorate the chilled cheesecake with chocolate-dipped strawberries before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened to achieve a smooth cheesecake batter without lumps. Additionally, leaving the cheesecake to rest in the refrigerator overnight will enhance its flavor and texture. When dipping strawberries, ensure they are completely dry to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
