Time 12h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups graham cracker crumbs (from about 16 graham crackers)
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
5 large eggs, at room temperature
Zest of 1 lemon, plus 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the crust: Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  • Mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, brown sugar and salt in a medium bowl until evenly moistened.
  • Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake the crust until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Cool completely on a rack. Wrap the bottom and up the sides of the pan with foil and place in a roasting pan.
  • For the filling: Add the cream cheese to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed until smooth. Add the granulated sugar and beat, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy. Gradually add the cream, beating until combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the lemon zest and juice, vanilla and salt and beat just until combined, taking care not to over whip. Pour into the crust.
  • Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Carefully place the roasting pan in the oven (don't pull the rack out of the oven). Pour enough hot water in the roasting pan to come about halfway up the side of the foil-wrapped springform pan.
  • Bake until the top of the cheesecake is lightly browned around the edges, but the center still jiggles slightly, about 2 hours.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the roasting pan to a rack. Run a knife around the edges and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
  • Bring the cheesecake to room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Remove the springform ring. Dip a knife in warm water and wipe dry before slicing each piece.

Yield Makes one 10-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 graham crackers
6 tablespoons butter, melted; plus more, room temperature, for pan
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of coarse salt
3 1/2 pounds (seven 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, room temperature
2 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
5 large eggs, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter the sides of a 10-inch springform pan. Wrap exterior of pan (including base) in a double layer of foil.
  • To make the crust, process graham crackers in food processor until fine. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Transfer mixture to the pan and pat into an even layer using the bottom of a measuring cup or meat pounder. Freeze the dough in the pan, about 15 minutes. Place pan on a baking sheet. Bake until the crust is firm to the touch and deeply golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down sides as needed.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and flour. With mixer on low speed, gradually add sugar mixture to cream cheese; mix until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until just combined; do not over mix.
  • Pour cream cheese filling into the prepared pan. Set pan inside a large, shallow roasting pan. Carefully ladle boiling water into roasting pan to reach halfway up sides of springform pan.
  • Bake 45 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Continue baking until cake is set but still slightly wobbly in the center, about 30 minutes more. Turn off oven; leave cake in oven with the door slightly ajar, about 1 hour. Transfer pan to a wire rack; let cake cool completely. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 6 hours or overnight. Before unmolding, run a knife around the edge of the cake.

CLASSIC NEW YORK-STYLE CHEESECAKE



Classic New York-Style Cheesecake image

Classic NY-style cheesecake, perfect with any of your favorite toppings.

Provided by Judie Cat

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Cheesecake Recipes     New York Cheesecake Recipes

Time 13h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

19 honey graham crackers, crushed
¼ cup white sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, cut into cubes, at room temperature
1 ½ cups white sugar
4 jumbo eggs, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
⅛ cup all-purpose flour, sifted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fill a large, round, disposable aluminum pan with about 1/2 inch of water to create a water bath.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter for crust in a bowl. Mix until well combined and spread evenly in a 9-inch springform pan. Press down firmly on crumbs with a small, flat-bottom bowl or glass, all over the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until set, about 10 minutes. Remove crust and set aside to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Meanwhile, mix cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add sugar and mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating batter briefly after each addition. Continue to add ingredients, one at a time, beating after each addition until blended, in this order: sour cream, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and flour. Pour cheesecake batter onto the crust and place carefully into the prepared water bath. The water level should be about 3/4 of the height of the springform pan; adjust as necessary.
  • Bake cheesecake until the sides appear solid and the center appears just undercooked, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Turn the oven off, but do not open the oven door. Let the cheesecake cool in the water bath for 3 to 4 hours; the center will continue to cook slowly.
  • Open the oven door slightly and keep the cheesecake inside for 1 more hour. Remove from the oven and transfer the cheesecake from the water bath to a wire rack. Cool for 1 hour, then place in the refrigerator until firm and fully chilled, at least 6 hours.
  • Run a thin metal knife along the sides of the springform pan, then unlock the pan and slip the side section up and over the cheesecake. Run a knife under hot water, dry it quickly, then slide it from left to right between the bottom of the pan and the bottom of the cake. Slide the cake to a cake liner or platter.

NEW YORK-STYLE CHEESECAKE

Time 4h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons melted butter
18 graham crackers, crushed

⅔ cup milk
4 eggs
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture into the bottom and about 1/2-inch up the sides of the springform pan.
  • Whisk flour, sour cream, and vanilla extract in bowl. Set aside.
  • Stir cream cheese and sugar with a wooden spoon in a large bowl until evenly incorporated, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour milk into cream cheese mixture and whisk until just combined.
  • Whisk in eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition.
  • Stir in lemon zest, orange zest, and sour cream mixture; whisk until just incorporated.
  • Pour mixture into prepared springform pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges have nicely puffed and the surface of the cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour.
  • When the cheesecake is done, turn off the oven and let it cool in the oven for 3 to 4 hours. This prevents any cracks from forming on the top of the cheesecake.

CLASSIC NEW YORK-STYLE CHEESECAKE



Classic New York-Style Cheesecake image

A dense yet not-heavy classic that can't be beat. For a silky-smooth batter, take care to bring the cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream to room temperature before blending. Using a water bath ensures the cake bakes evenly, so the center doesn't crack.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 10h35m

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more, room temperature, for pan
15 graham crackers (each 3 by 5 inches), broken into pieces
1/3 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 teaspoon packed finely grated lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh juice
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
2 1/2 pounds cream cheese (five 8-ounce packages), room temperature
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
5 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Assemble a 9-by-3-inch springform pan with its bottom inverted, so the raised lip faces down. Butter pan.
  • In a food processor, finely grind graham crackers. Add melted butter, brown sugar, lemon zest, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; pulse until mixture resembles wet sand. Press evenly into bottom and halfway up sides of prepared pan. Bake until golden and set, 12 to 15 minutes; let cool completely.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 325°. Beat cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in lemon juice and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in sour cream and vanilla until smooth.
  • Place pan in the center of a double layer of foil. Lift edges of foil up, wrapping tightly around sides of pan and folding foil under itself as needed until flush with top of pan (this will prevent moisture from seeping in). Pour filling into pan (it should come almost to top of rim); smooth top with a small offset spatula.
  • Place filled pan inside a roast- ing pan and transfer to center rack of oven. Carefully pour enough boiling water into roast- ing pan to come halfway up sides of springform pan (this is safer than pouring it in and then transferring to the oven). Bake until cake is puffed and golden brown on top and slightly wobbly in center, 1 3/4 to 2 hours (it will continue to cook as it cools).
  • Carefully remove spring-form pan from roasting pan; transfer to a wire rack and let cool 20 minutes. Remove foil and run a small paring knife around sides of pan to loosen cheesecake. Let cool completely. Drape pan loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 8 hours and up to 3 days. Unmold cake and serve.

CLASSIC NEW YORK STYLE CHERRY CHEESECAKE image

Make this creamy, luscious, crack-free, not-too-sweet, cheesecake without a water bath. The hardest part is waiting for it to set overnight in the oven, and then in the fridge, before diving into this self-indulgent dessert.

Provided by loveofitaliancooking

Categories     European

Time 1h10m

Yield 16 , 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup graham cracker crumbs or 1 cup crumbled digestive biscuit
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
2 lbs cream cheese, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon vanilla or 1 sachet vanilla sugar
3/4 cup heavy cream
4 eggs
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • FOR THE CRUST: Preheat oven to 400 °F (200 °C). In a large springform pan (10 inches or 26 cm in diameter), mix crumbs, melted butter and sugar well together. Press firmly onto bottom of pan. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside. NOTE: The crust recipe can be doubled if you also wish to have a crust on the side of the cheesecake.
  • FOR THE FILLING: In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, flour, sugar, vanilla and heavy cream with an electric mixer on low speed until well blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating just until combined after each addition (don't overmix the batter).
  • Pour batter into prepared springform pan and bake at 400 °F (200 °C) for 10 minutes and then reduce the temperature to 300 °F (150 °C). Continue baking for another 40 minutes.
  • After the baking time is up, gently shake the pan back and forth. The cheesecake should be evenly baked through and uniformly wobbly, but if only the centre is wobbly (about the size of a baseball or roughly 10 cm), it is also fine. Remove cheesecake from oven and carefully run a knife along the edge to loosen the cheesecake from the pan. Place it back in the oven with the heat turned off. Leave the cheesecake over night, with the oven door shut. Put the cheesecake in the fridge the next day for a minimum of 4 hours and up to 24 hours. Top with cherry pie filling or your favourite topping before serving.
  • MAKES 12-16 SLICES (depending on how thick you slice them).

Provided by Steve_G

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 3h30m

Yield 1 ten inch cake, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup white sugar
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 1/2 lbs cream cheese, softened
1 3/4 cups white sugar
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 large eggs
2 egg yolks (from large eggs)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract (adjust to taste)
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • PREP------.
  • As with all baking, have all your ingredients at a cool room temperature (65°F).
  • Get a couple quarts of water boiling on the stove.
  • Arrange racks in your oven so there's one on the lowest and one in the middle. If you do not have a center position then go mid-lower.
  • Have a clean 10x14x2-inch (give or take) roasting pan ready.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Grease 10 inch springform pan.
  • CRUST-------.
  • Gently combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 egg and 1/2 cup butter in a medium bowl.
  • Spread to the edges of the pan.
  • Prick all over with a fork, then bake 10-15 minutes at 400°F until lightly browned. Allow to cool on a rack.
  • FILLING------.
  • Increase oven temperature to 475°F.
  • Turn oven light off (trust me on this one), place roasting pan on bottom rack and fill with boiling water.
  • In a large bowl (I use my stand mixer), very gently beat cream cheese until smooth. I use the slowest setting for 5 minutes.
  • Scrape down sides of bowl.
  • Gradually add the salt, 1 3/4 cups sugar and 3 tablespoons flour -- continue to beat SLOWLY until well combined, scrape down sides of bowl.
  • In a small bowl gently beat the vanilla, 5 eggs and the 2 yolks, gradually add eggs to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Continue to stir until combined and smooth, stop mixer occasionally and scrape down sides.
  • VERY IMPORTANT! Stop mixer, remove bowl and give it a good scraping (some of the cream cheese will stick to the sides and bottom of the bowl), replace bowl on mixer and stir until all lumps are gone.
  • Add cream and mix only enough to blend.
  • Gently pour filling over crust, run a thin knife around the filling in a S pattern to remove any trapped air bubbles. Let it sit on the counter for 5 minutes then do it again.
  • Bake for 10 minutes at 475°F.
  • Reduce temperature to 200°F and continue to bake for one hour.
  • Turn oven off, but leave cake in for another hour.
  • DON'T TOUCH THAT OVEN DOOR! You've created a nice, humid environment that will help prevent cracks and produce a perfect, professional, NY style cheese cake assuming you didn't mess with it by changing the atmospheric conditions.
  • It may appear a little jiggly in the center and will have a golden appearance around the edges.
  • Allow to cool on a rack for several hours, release the latch slightly on the side of the pan after 20 minutes, rotate sides to be sure the cake is free (but don't take it off yet), you can remove the sides after an hour (or so) if you want to admire your work, but replace it quickly or the cake may fall.
  • After it's cool, wrap completely with plastic wrap, there should be a layer stuck to the top of the cake.
  • Chill overnight in the refrigerator (Yes, this is required).
  • The cake will stay at peak flavor for several days so long as you keep it wrapped and cold.
  • What can go wrong?.
  • If the cake cracks you either had your ingredients too cold, mixed the filling too vigorously, opened the oven door while the cake was cooking or didn't have a pan of water in the oven.
  • If it does crack, don't despair -- just cover with a dark fruit or a layer of cookie crumbs.
  • Toppings------.
  • Nothing (my favorite).
  • OR, boil a bag of frozen berries with a 1/4 cup of sugar until the liquid coats the back of a spoon, thicken with a table spoon of cornstarch mixed into a 1/4 cup of cold water -- Pour in slowly while maintaining the boil and stirring constantly.
  • Adjust thickness by adding liquid or more cornstarch.
  • Flavor with liqueur, fruit juice or extract.
  • Blueberries or raspberries with Chambord is awesome, cherries work well with Frangelico or Amaretto. If you do use an alcoholic beverage, be sure to boil off alcohol. Cool fruit sauce in a mason jar and refrigerate. Keeps longer than the cheese cake!
  • I've served it with caramel sauce and, buttered/sliced/baked apples .
  • A light milk chocolate sauce, a sprinkle of chopped pecans and dollop of whipped cream will produce a nice turtle cake.

CHEATER'S NEW YORK STYLE CHEESECAKE



Cheater's New York Style Cheesecake image

This is one I modified from several recipes. I cannot to use a springform pan. I buy the ready-made graham cracker crust and use my filling in them. I find it easier to do and can transport them in the container the crust comes in.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 graham cracker pie crust, ready-made
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
16 ounces cream cheese, room temperature

Steps:

  • Combine the sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a mixer for one minute. Add the cream cheese and mix until smooth. Add the melted butter and mix a few seconds longer.
  • Pour into ready-made pie crust ( I use the larger ones with the 2 extra servings) and bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes.
  • If you want to brown the top, turn on the broiler and watch it. If you look away, it will burn.

  • We prefer it plain, but feel free to add the topping of your choice.

CLASSIC NEW YORK STYLE CHERRY CHEESECAKE RECIPE - (3.8/5)



Classic New York Style Cherry Cheesecake Recipe - (3.8/5) image

Provided by fortheloveofitaliancooking

Number Of Ingredients 12

CRUST:
1 cup graham cracker crumbs or crumbled digestive biscuits
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
FILLING:
2 pounds cream cheese, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon vanilla
3/4 cup heavy cream
4 eggs
1 can cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • FOR THE CRUST: Preheat oven to 400 °F (200 °C). In a large springform pan (10 inches or 26 cm in diameter), mix crumbs, melted butter and sugar well together. Press firmly onto bottom of pan. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside. NOTE: The crust recipe can be doubled if you also wish to have a crust on the side of the cheesecake. FOR THE FILLING: In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, flour, sugar, vanilla and heavy cream with an electric mixer on low speed until well blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating just until combined after each addition (don't over mix the batter). Pour batter into prepared springform pan and bake at 400 °F (200 °C) for 10 minutes and then reduce the temperature to 300 °F (150 °C). Continue baking for another 40 minutes. After the baking time is up, gently shake the pan back and forth. The cheesecake should be evenly baked through and uniformly wobbly, but if only the centre is wobbly (about the size of a baseball or roughly 10 cm), it is also fine. Remove cheesecake from oven and carefully run a knife along the edge to loosen the cheesecake from the pan. Place it back in the oven with the heat turned off. Leave the cheesecake over night, with the oven door shut. Put the cheesecake in the fridge the next day for a minimum of 4 hours and up to 24 hours. Top with cherry pie filling or your favorite topping before serving. MAKES 12-16 SLICES (depending on how thick you slice them)

CREAMY NEW YORK STYLE CHEESECAKE



Creamy New York Style Cheesecake image

Cheesecake is one of my all time faves, so several years ago I set out to make the perfect cheesecake. Most the cheesecakes out there are all of an inch tall, two if you're lucky, and they are dense like hockey pucks and heavy in flavor. NOT my idea of cheesecake. I also like a thicker crust. So, after several attempts of...

Time 3h45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

crust:
22 graham cracker squares, (or 11 whole), crushed to crumbs
1/4 c butter, melted
1 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbsp sugar
filling:
5 pkg cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 c sugar
3 Tbsp flour
4 large eggs, beaten
2 c sour cream
2 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. For crust: Mix all ingredients together well and press into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9 inch spring form pan. Chill.
  • 2. For filling: Beat cream cheese on high for 2 minutes. Blend in sugar. Add flour and beat until combined well. On low, beat in eggs, just until blended. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat until just blended. Pour over chilled crust.
  • 3. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Then, turn oven off and put the handle of a wooden spoon in the door to hold it open. Let it sit in the oven for another hour, then GENTLY remove it from the oven and set it on a baking rack for another hour. (This process allows for the final cooking and gradual cooling, so that it does not crack.) Then run a knife around the sides of the pan, cover and chill for 6 hours or overnight. Remove pan sides prior to serving, and decorate with topping if desired.

  • Don't overbeat the cream cheese: Overbeating the cream cheese will make the cheesecake tough. Beat it just until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking. Place the cheesecake pan in a larger pan filled with hot water.
  • Let the cheesecake cool slowly: After baking, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door cracked open for 1 hour. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from sinking.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly before serving: The cheesecake should be chilled for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will help it to set properly.
