What you need:

Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar

Firmly press the mixture in the bottom of a parchment paper-lined 8-inch baking dish and bake for about 10 minutes

Use a mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla and continue mixing until well combined

Add the eggs to a small bowl and lightly beat them, then mix them into the filling on low speed until just combined

Pour the filling over the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth it out into an even layer

Place the pan back in the oven and bake for about 35 minutes until the center is set

Let the bars cool to room temperature then chill in the fridge for a least 4 hours before slicing
