Butter for pan Crust: 250g digestive biscuits 1/4 cup (55g) caster sugar 125g unsalted butter, melted Filling: Four 250g packages cream cheese, at room temperature, chopped 1 1/4 cups (275g) caster sugar 1 tbs lemon juice 1 tsp pure vanilla extract 4 extra-large eggs Sour Cream Topping: 500g sour cream 1/4 cup (55g) caster sugar 1. Position rack in the centre of the oven and preheat to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Cover the base of a 23cm springform pan with a large square of baking paper, overhanging the edge. Clip the sides in place with the paper protruding. Lightly butter the sides. 2. Break the biscuits into a food processor and grind to very fine crumbs. Add sugar and melted butter and pulse until moistened. Press crumb mixture evenly onto bottom and sides of pan and place on a tray. Bake for about 8 mins, or until crust is shade darker. Cool on rack. 3. While crust cools, reduce oven temperature to 150°C/130°C fan-forced. 4. Clean food processor bowl, then blend cream cheese and sugar until smooth, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl with flexible spatula. Add lemon juice and vanilla; pulse to combine. Add eggs and pulse to blend. 5. Pour filling into crust-lined pan. Bake directly on middle rack in oven for about 50 mins, or until filling is set except for very centre when pan is gently shaken (cake will become firm when chilled). 6. Meanwhile, prepare sour cream topping: In medium bowl, stir sour cream and sugar to blend. 7. Spoon sour cream mixture onto hot baked cheesecake and smooth it over top. Continue baking cheesecake for 10 mins. Turn oven off and cool cheesecake in oven for 30 mins. Transfer to cooling rack on counter and cool cheesecake for 1 hour. 8. Run sharp paring knife around edges of cheesecake to loosen it from pan sides (leave sides in place). Cover loosely with foil and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or until thoroughly chilled. 9. Remove pan sides from cheesecake. Use paper to slide onto a serving plate, then gently ease paper out.
