Cheesecake Ingredients

Method

Baking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the crust

    Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Ensure it is evenly distributed and compacted. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

  3. 3

    Prepare the filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar and continue to beat until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Add remaining ingredients

    Add sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Finally, add the all-purpose flour and mix until just combined.

  5. 5

    Bake the cheesecake

    Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.

  6. 6

    Cool and chill

    Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve. Enjoy your New York Style Cheesecake!
