Recipe Summary New York-Style Cheesecake
This is my favorite recipe for New York-style cheesecake, and includes a great technique for letting the citrus-kissed cake finish in the oven, so that no crack forms when the cake cools.Ingredients | Perfect Hamburger Recipe New York Times3 tablespoons melted butter18 graham crackers, crushed¼ cup all-purpose flour1 cup sour cream1 tablespoon vanilla extract4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese1 ½ cups white sugar⅔ cup milk4 eggs1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest1 teaspoon finely grated orange zestDirectionsPreheat 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.Chef John serves this with his Fresh Strawberry Sauce.Info | Perfect Hamburger Recipe New York Timesprep: 15 mins cook: 1 hr additional: 3 hrs total: 4 hrs 15 mins Servings: 12 Yield: 1 9-inch cheesecake
