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.

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.
