Use a big wooden spoon to stir together the crushed biscuits and melted butter in a large bowl. Carefully tip the crumb mixture into the base of the cake tin, and then press firmly with your fingers to cover the base. Ask Mum or Dad to transfer the tin into the oven to bake for 10 minutes. Once ready and out of the oven, turn the heat down to 110°C.

Beat the cream cheese and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer on medium until very smooth. Carefully add the flour, vanilla, eggs and sour cream, and continue to beat until mixed. Make sure not to turn the speed to high or else you might end up with egg on your face!

Ask Mum or Dad to transfer into the oven and cook for 45 minutes. Once the cake is ready, it should be just set and the centre should wobble slightly. Remove from the oven and cool completely in the tin.
