New York Baked Cheesecake Recipe

Recently I’ve been doing a lot of travel reminiscing. I think this is due to the fact that I haven’t got a big travel adventure planned any time soon. It really doesn’t help having blown up travel photos adorning my bedroom walls and plastered all as my computer desktop pictures. Some of the most painful ones to see are of my trip to New York and Boston I took with two good friends about 3 years ago.  I loved New York before we went and fell in love with Boston from the moment we got there. Both places showed me such food delights whilst exploring the cities. One that particular moment that stands out for me was when I sunk my fork into the cheesecake at Carnegie Deli. Which three years on I still proclaim this to the best cheesecake in New York, if not the world. What makes it so good? I mean check it out below and how happy it makes me! Deep moist, crumbly and just perfection in cheesecake form. Now I sadly can’t afford to head back to New York every time I fancy a cheesecake (I really wish I could!) so I have made myself a bit of New York until I can go back. It’s a great recipe that doesn’t take to long to assemble and less time to demolish.

I don’t have a rectangle springform tin so I make one to release this beast of a cheesecake. I use a tin that measures 36cm x 27.5cm x 7.5cm, then cut a cardboard base which I wrap in plenty of tin foil. Once the based is wrapped up, lay across a couple of good lengths of tin foil, you want enough foil that when you lift up the baked cheesecake the foil won’t rip. Place at the bottom of the tin the covered cardboard base as this will give support when removing the cheesecake so it doesn’t crack. Clever huh?
