Zubereitung von Simply Delicious New York Style Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Mix well.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 10-inch springform pan, pressing slightly up the sides.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together 3 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 3 large eggs, 3 large egg yolks, 1 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla bean seeds (or 1 additional teaspoon vanilla extract), and 2 tablespoons bourbon (optional).
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared crust.
- Wrap the springform pan tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (water bath).
- Bake for 1 ½ hours, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove from oven and water bath. Carefully remove the foil.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack to room temperature.
- Refrigerate overnight (at least 6 hours) before serving.
