New York Style Cheesecake Recipe

Vintage and Authentic New York Style Cheesecake is the best creamiest cheesecake ever. It's a little work but the best I ever had.
Prep time: 35 MinCook time: 1 HourTotal time: 1 H & 35 M

Ingredients

  • Cheesecake:
  • 4- 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, melted
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Crust:
  • 1 package of Lorna Doone cookies crushed fine or use graham crackers if you want to
  • 1 stick butter or margarine
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Crust:
  2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  3. Cut parchment paper to fit a 9-inch springform pan.
  4. Spray any areas that are showing with metal with cooking spray.
  5. In a medium-sized bowl, add ground cookies, butter, sugar, and cinnamon and blend evenly.
  6. Press the cookie mixture firmly to the bottom of the prepared pan.
  7. Place the springform pan on a cookie sheet and bake for 7 minutes.
  8. This helps the cookie crust to stay in place and not float to the top when adding the filling.
  9. The Cheesecake Filling:
  10. Beat cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl until smooth around 5 to 8 minutes until it has a smooth and creamy (no lumps) consistency, use an industrial size mixer on low, be patient, this needs to be silky smooth.
  11. Beat in butter, then eggs, 1 at a time, until well blended, around 5 to 8 minutes. Be patient.
  12. Beat in vanilla.
  13. Pour batter over crust in pan.
  14. Bake the cheesecake on a cookie sheet with a springform pan.
  15. Water Bath: Add enough hot water to any sized cake pan and just set it in the oven somewhere on another rack for the water bath method.
  16. Reduce heat to 350 and place the cheesecake in a water bath in the oven.
  17. Chef's Note and Tip: A water bath is simply a pan of hot water placed in the oven, and using this method has two benefits when baking.
  18. First, a water bath adds moisture to the oven and this is important for baking foods like cheesecakes, which tend to crack from the heat of the oven, or custards which can become rubbery without moist heat.
  19. Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until the middle is even on top and not sunken in.
  20. Cool completely.
  21. This can be chilled first before removing the parchment paper in the refrigerator.
  22. Remove the parchment paper and carefully place your cheesecake on a serving platter.
  23. Garnishes:
  24. Top with favorite toppings some suggestions below.
  25. Chill overnight or at least four hours before serving for a more intense flavor.
  26. For Strawberry Glaze you will need:
  27. one quart of fresh strawberries removing stems.
  28. 1 batch of glaze
  29. In a saucepan add
  30. 3/4 cup water
  31. 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  32. 1 cup of sugar
  33. 1 teaspoon red food coloring
  34. Simmer till clear in the pan. Add one teaspoon of vanilla. Cool pour some of the glaze on cheesecake reserving enough to dip strawberries in the glaze, place on top of cheesecake.
  35. For Macadamia, Caramel and Toffee Cheesecake:
  36. Topping:
  37. 1 jar caramel ice cream topping pour on top around 1/2 cup
  38. add 1/2 cup coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
  39. 2 to 3 heath bars crushed on top
