Not so Hard!

I finally did it, and without a water bath! I made the perfect cheesecake- creamy on the inside and outside, no cracks, and New York style! I have always liked making cheesecake because I have never done it perfectly. Thanks to this recipe, and other people's reviews on allrecipes.com, I created a masterpiece my family is still enjoying. A little goes a looooong way!



Cheesecake Supreme

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 T white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 5 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 5 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 3/4 cups white sugar
  • 1/8 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • Mix the graham cracker crumbs, 3 T. sugar, and the melted butter together. Press mixture into the bottom of one 9 or 10 inch springform pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, eggs and egg yolks; mix until smooth. Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups white sugar, the flour and the sour cream. Blend until smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake at 200 degrees F (don't preheat) for 3 hours and 10 minutes, then turn oven off, leaving door ajar for an hour. Let cheesecake cool, then refrigerate a day before eating.

Thanks for saying that even though you don't like cheesecake. You'd love mine..I froze about 1/3 of it so I wouldn't feel pressured to eat it all. After all, 5 cubes of cream cheese ain't cheap!
