Preparing the Cheesecake
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Crush graham crackers until fine crumbs, then mix with melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
- In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add sugar, then eggs one at a time. Mix in sour cream, butterscotch sauce, and vanilla extract until creamy.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly. Bake for 60 minutes or until edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door. Let cheesecake cool in the oven for 30 minutes to prevent cracking.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Top each slice with whipped cream and drizzle with butterscotch sauce.

Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for a smooth filling. Avoid overmixing to prevent cracks during baking. Chill thoroughly for best flavor and texture.
