How to Make Corby's Cheesecake With Strawberry Sauce
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- For the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust cools, prepare the filling: In a large bowl, beat 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
- Beat in 1 cup sour cream and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until smooth. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Pour the filling over the cooled 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 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but the center still jiggles slightly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. Then, remove from oven and let cool completely at room temperature.
- Refrigerate overnight for best results.
- For the strawberry sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 ⅓ cups granulated sugar, and 7 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Whisk until smooth.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and becomes clear.
- Remove from heat and stir in ½ pint (approximately 1 cup) mashed strawberries, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and a few drops of red food coloring (optional).
- Let the sauce cool for 30 minutes. Stir in 1 ½ pints (approximately 3 cups) sliced strawberries.
- Refrigerate until chilled before serving. Top the chilled cheesecake with the strawberry sauce and enjoy!
