How to Make Carnegie Deli Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, beating until well combined.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in sour cream, vanilla, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly moistened.
- Press crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan.
- Pour cheesecake batter over the crust.
- 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 (this creates a water bath).
- Bake for 60 minutes in a preheated oven. After 60 minutes, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes. This allows for gradual cooling and prevents cracking.
- Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once completely cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
