Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! First, preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In my kitchen, I like to begin by mixing the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and sugar until it resembles wet sand. Then, press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your springform pan. This forms a delightful base that’ll hold all that creamy filling beautifully. Once that’s done, pop it in the oven for about 10 minutes to get that crust just right. The smell of toasty graham crackers fills the kitchen during baking, and I love it!
