Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it.
- In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup of granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press into the bottom of the pan and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with 1¼ cups of sugar until smooth. Add vanilla and mix. Beat in eggs one at a time, then fold in sour cream.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 50-60 minutes until the center jiggles. Let cool in the oven for 1 hour.
- In a saucepan, combine blackberries, ¼ cup sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and water. Cook until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
- Spread blackberry topping over the cheesecake, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Carefully remove sides of the springform pan, slice with a hot knife, and serve with fresh blackberries or whipped cream.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth filling. Prepare 1-2 days in advance for enhanced flavors.
