New York Style Cheesecake

This is a family favorite cheesecake I made for my husband's 40th birthday party, New York Style Cheesecake and it's one of my treasured vintage recipes ever!


If you're looking for an Authentic style N.Y. cheesecake this is it!


There so many styles and different kinds of cheesecakes.


New York Style Cheesecake, No-Bake Cheesecake Pie, Ricotta Cheesecake, (and Other Non-Cream Cheese) Vegan Cheesecake and Savory Cheesecake.


New York Cheesecake relies upon heavy cream or sour cream.


The typical New York cheesecake is rich and has a dense, smooth, and creamy consistency.

This recipe was a smash hit at the party and it fed a large crowd of 16 people.


We had a very little leftover and trust me, this is one heck of a showpiece everyone raved about!

Suggestions:

• You can top this with whatever you like
• Strawberries
• Assorted Berries
• Slices of any fruits
• Top with warmed jams
• Sprinkled with mini chocolate chips, caramel and pecans chopped or macadamia nuts
• Pineapple and cherries with shredded coconut

You get the idea???? Anything will be fabulous

Preparing the pan

First of all, I spray my springform pan with oil spray to keep the parchment in place, I hate that it will keep falling over if I don't.


Cut the parchment paper to fit and make it around for the bottom and thin sleeve to go around the ring.

Water Bath Method

Here's how to bake the cheesecake and doing a water bath:

Wrap outside of the pan in a double layer of foil, covering the underside and extending all the way to the top.


Then set the wrapped springform pan on a large cookie sheet.


Fill a cake pan around 13 x 9 with water halfway up and set on a different rack in the oven.

• 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
• Mix all together
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray bottom of 9-inch springform pan with 2 1/2-inch-high sides with nonstick spray and make a sleeve with parchment paper to fit on the bottom and cut another piece to fit the ring. One round and one ring. If you spray it first it will stay in place.

• Wrap outside bottom of the pan with 3 layers of heavy-duty foil.

How to cook New York Style Cheesecake Recipe

1. The Cheesecake Filling
2. 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. Beat in butter, then eggs, 1 at a time, until well blended, around 5 to 8 minutes. Be patient. Beat in vanilla. Pour batter over crust in pan.  
3. Place the springform pan on a cookie sheet.
4. 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.
5. Reduce heat to 350 and place cheesecake with a water bath in the oven.
6. Note: A water bath is simply a pan of hot water placed in the oven, and using this method has two benefits when baking. 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.
7. ( If you have bubbles on top swirl a knife around the batter to burst before cooking. ) 
8. Bake cake uncovered until filling is puffed around edges and moves slightly in center when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour 10 minutes. 
9. Cool completely.
10. Slide onto your favorite large cake plate. 
11. Top with favorite toppings some suggestions below.
12. Chill overnight or at least four hours before serving.
13. For Strawberry you will need:
14. one quart of fresh strawberries removing stems.
15. 1 batch of glaze
16. In a saucepan add
17. 3/4 cup water
18. 3 tbsp cornstarch
19. 1 cup of sugar
20. 1 teaspoon red food coloring
21. 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.
