How to Make Top Secret Carnegie Deli Classic New York Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the cookie crust: In a food processor, pulse 2 cups of chocolate sandwich cookies until finely ground. Add 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) of melted unsalted butter and mix until combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
- Beat the cream cheese: In a large bowl, beat 3 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
- Add eggs and other ingredients: Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ cup of sour cream, and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour.
- Pour batter into the crust: Pour the batter into the prepared crust and spread evenly.
- Bake: Bake for 65 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Cool down: Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour. Then, remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
- Serve and enjoy! Garnish with your favorite toppings like whipped cream or fresh berries.
