FAQ:
Can I use a different crust for this cheesecake? Yes! You can use any crushed cookies, such as Oreos, digestive biscuits, or vanilla wafers, for the crust.

Can I make this cheesecake ahead of time? Absolutely! This cheesecake is perfect for making in advance. Just make sure it chills in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving.

How do I know when my cheesecake is done? The edges should be set and the center should have a slight jiggle when you shake the pan. It will firm up more as it cools and chills in the refrigerator.

Is it necessary to use sour cream in the filling? Sour cream adds a rich, creamy texture and a slight tang to the cheesecake. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can substitute it with plain Greek yogurt.
