How to Make Why I Joined Zaar New York Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. **Crust:** Grease the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan lightly with butter.
  3. Combine crust ingredients (see below) in the pan, mixing until crumbs are moistened with the butter. Press crumbs into the bottom of the pan, creating a crust about 1 inch up the sides.
  4. Bake crust for 10 minutes.
  5. **Filling:** In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add flour and beat until thoroughly combined.
  7. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  8. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with ¼ cup of sugar until soft peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cream cheese mixture.
  10. Pour filling into the prepared crust.
  11. Bake for 1 hour at 325°F (160°C).
  12. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
  13. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  14. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving for best results.
