Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Gently mix in the sour cream and heavy cream until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared graham cracker crust.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.

For a richer cheesecake, you can add a tablespoon of lemon zest.
If you don’t have a graham cracker crust, you can make your own by crushing 1 ½ cups of graham crackers and mixing them with ¼ cup melted butter and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press into the pan.
Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can lead to cracks.
