2. Prepare your baking dish or custard cups/ramekins by spraying them with non-stick cooking spray (PAM). If using custard cups, place them in a water bath with water coming halfway up the sides of the cups to ensure even baking.

3. Blend all the ingredients (cream cheese, Splenda, sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs) in a blender until smooth and well combined. Ensure the mixture is liquefied and free of lumps.

4. Pour the blended cheesecake mixture into the prepared custard cups or baking dish.

5. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. The cheesecake should be set but slightly jiggly in the center when gently shaken.

6. After baking, turn off the oven but leave the cheesecake inside with the oven door slightly ajar for 1 more hour. This gradual cooling helps prevent cracking.

7. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature.

8. Refrigerate the cooled cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving. Chilling thoroughly ensures the best texture and flavor.
