Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then cool.
Beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time. Mix in white chocolate, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla. Pour over crust.
Bake for 50-60 minutes. The center should set but jiggle slightly. Cool for 10 minutes, then loosen edges with a knife. Cool completely before chilling for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Variations & Tips
Feel free to experiment with different citrus like lime or orange for a unique twist. Consider adding chopped nuts to the crust for extra crunch. For a flawless cheesecake, use room-temperature ingredients and resist opening the oven during baking. Patience is key—allow the cheesecake to cool gradually.
