    1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
    1 teaspoon white sugar
    1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

    4 tablespoons melted butter
    2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
    3 eggs

    Beat the cream cheese with the eggs on medium-low with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in the 1 cup sugar and vanilla. Fold in the sour cream just until blended. Do not overmix; ovemixing causes the cheesecake to crack. Pour into the cooled crust.
