Crustless Cheesecake
A super easy cheesecake that doesn't require much time to make! The crust is self-forming using the butter and flour applied to the pan prior to adding the ingredients. Great for beginners and those who have been baking for years.

Tap a step to mark your place.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Coat a 9-or 10-inch pie plate with butter. Sprinkle with flour until covered. (This combination will bake into a thin “crust.”)
Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add eggs, 1 at a time, and mix well after each addition until each egg is fully incorporated into the batter. Pour cheesecake filling into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 35 minutes (if using a 10-inch pan) or 45 minutes (if using a 9-inch pan).
Remove from the oven, and allow the cheesecake to stand for 5 minutes. It will fall in the middle.
While cheesecake rests, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Mix sour cream and sugar together in a small bowl using a fork or a whisk. Pour sour cream mixture over the fallen middle of the cheesecake. Spread toward the edges, leaving a rim around the exterior.
Return cheesecake to the oven and bake for 5 minutes more.
Remove from the oven and allow cheesecake to cool completely before serving or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
