Categories     dessert

Time 10h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch fine salt
Four 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  • For the crust: Put the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl, cover with a paper towel and melt in the microwave in 10-second increments. Brush a 9-inch springform pan with some of the melted butter.
  • Stir together the remaining butter with the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pan, taking care to get the crust evenly to the edges. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool. Place the pan on a large sheet of foil and wrap up the sides. Place in a roasting pan.
  • For the cheesecake: Beat together the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the sour cream and vanilla and beat until just combined. Mix in the eggs by hand, one at a time, until just combined. (Take care not to overmix or the cheesecake will puff up and crack.) Pour the batter evenly over the crust, smoothing the top. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come about halfway up the sides of the foil-wrapped springform pan. Bake until the outside of the cake is set but the center is still slightly loose, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  • Turn the oven off and leave the cheesecake in the oven for another hour. Remove the cheesecake from the roasting pan to a cooling rack. Run a knife around the edge and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the pan once more and unlock to unmold the cheesecake. Transfer to a serving platter or cake stand and smooth the edges with a knife.

BEST CHEESECAKE EVER



Best Cheesecake Ever image

The most evil good tasting dessert I have ever had! Cookware : 10 inch springform pan. And Usually when I cook this cheesecake I get a small crack or two. I found a remedy to this problem though, if you place another rack underneath the cake while cooking containing a bowl of water you will not get any cracks. The water steams up and prevents the cake from cracking this method however will require you to watch more carefully; if you bake it too long the cake will be more like soup. Better to cook and just leave the crack, the taste will more than make up for it I promise!

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 2h30m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
2 cups sugar
6 eggs
2 (16 ounce) containers sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup crushed graham cracker
2 teaspoons softened butter
2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • To make the Crust: First you want to put your graham crackers in a bowl and crush them to death!
  • You want to have very fine pieces!
  • After this add 2 teaspoons of softened butter and 2 teaspoons of sugar and mix well.
  • Then add to the springform pan and smooth out over the bottom so that it is evenly distributed.
  • Your crust is now done!
  • As for the cake: Add all cake ingredients except vanilla into a very large mixing bowl and mix until smooth (sometimes after mixing by hand for awhile I use a mixer) then add your 2 teaspoons of vanilla.
  • When all done mixing you want to very slowly pour the cake mix into your springform pan with the graham crackers so that you do not push your crust everywhere.
  • Pour it in the middle and let spread by itself.
  • You want to fill the pan about 3/4 full maybe a little more but not to the top as it will overflow.
  • Then put the cheesecake into the oven and place a sheet of aluminum foil lightly on top as not to touch the cake and let cook for 45 minutes.
  • Then remove foil and cook an additional 5-15 minutes or until slightly darker yellow tinge becomes visible on the outside top edge.
  • Then turn off oven heat and let the cheesecake sit in the oven for 1 hour.
  • After this you must remove the cake from the oven and refrigerate it for at least 1 day (2 days and it will cut better).
  • I know this might be a tease but it will be worth the wait!
  • I promise.
  • And just so you know ever since I created this evil cheesecake I now have to make it for everybody all the time so be warned.
