How to Make Four 4 5 Inch Cheesecakes With Nine Stir In Variations

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour four 5-inch springform pans.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
  3. Gently fold in sour cream.
  4. Divide batter evenly among the prepared pans.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set but still slightly jiggly. Do not overbake!
  6. Turn off oven and leave cheesecakes in oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. This prevents cracking.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Once cooled, chill cheesecakes in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
  9. Before serving, carefully release cheesecakes from the springform pans.
  10. Add your choice of stir-ins (see recipe notes for ideas) and garnish as desired!
