Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9x9 inch baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.

Add sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Finally, mix in the sour cream until smooth.

Pour the filling over the cooled crust and spread evenly.

Bake for 20 minutes or until the center is set. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries with sugar and let sit for 10 minutes to macerate.

Once the cheesecake is cooled, top with the macerated strawberries before slicing into bars.
