Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 23 cm (9-inch) springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 50 grams of sugar. Mix until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C (325°F).
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and 200 grams of sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream, heavy cream, flour, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.
Add the eggs and egg yolks one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition to avoid overmixing.
Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Wrap the bottom of the springform pan with aluminum foil to prevent water from seeping in.
Place the pan in a large roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the oven and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour to allow it to cool gradually.
Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
Run a knife around the edge of the pan before releasing the springform ring. Slice and serve chilled.
