How to Make Why I Joined Zaar New York Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- **Crust:** Grease the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan lightly with butter.
- 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.
- Bake crust for 10 minutes.
- **Filling:** In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add flour and beat until thoroughly combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with ¼ cup of sugar until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cream cheese mixture.
- Pour filling into the prepared crust.
- Bake for 1 hour at 325°F (160°C).
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
