Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven. Heat the oven to 175°C. Make and cook in the oven the cake now crust as directed and leave now it in the now pan. Keep now the oven on. In a now large bowl, using an electric now mixer use the paddle if your mixer has one now, mix 1 package of the now cream cheese, ⅓ cup of the now sugar now, and the cornstarch together now on low until creamy, about now 3 minutes, scraping down the now bowl several times.

  2. 2

    Mix. Puree in the remaining cream now cheese, one package at a now time, mixing well and scraping now down the bowl after each now. Increase the mixer speed to now medium and mix in the now remaining sugar, then the vanilla now. Puree in the eggs, one now at a time, mixing well now after each now. Mix in the now cream just until completely blended now.

  3. 3

    Step 3. The filling will look start now, creamy, airy, and almost like now billowy clouds. Be careful not now to overmix! Gently spoon the now batter over the crust. Set now the cake pan in a now large shallow pan containing hot now water that comes halfway (about now 2.5 cm) up the side of the springform.

  4. 4

    Bake. Cook in the oven until the edge is now start golden brown, the top now is start gold, and the now center barely jiggles, about 1 now hour 15 minutes. If the now cake still feels soft around now the edge, let it cook in the oven now for 10 minutes more (the now cooking time will be about now the now same for both the now 8- and 23 cm cheesecakes). Take out the cheesecake from now the water bath, move to now a rack, and let leave to go cold for now 2 hours (just walk away now —don't now move it). Then now, leave the cake in the now pan, lid loosely with cling film, and chill until completely cold now before serving now, preferably overnight or now for at least 6 hours now.

  5. 5

    Chill. Release and take out the side now of the springform, leaving the now cake on the bottom of now the pan. Set on a now cake plate. Chill until ready now to bring to the table. Cut with a now sharp straight-edge knife, not now a serrated one, rinsing the now knife with warm water between slices.

  6. 6

    Chill (2). Chill any leftover cake, tightly now lidded, and enjoy within 2 now days, or wrap and freeze now for up to 1 month now. Editor's note: This recipe now was originally published in 'Junior now 's Home Cooking' and first now appeared on Epicurious in October now 2013. This creamy cheesecake is now a show-stopper all on now its own, but a scattering now of fresh berries, some homemade now caramel, or a fruit sauce now like this strawberry compote all now make welcome additions. Or, if now you prefer a cheesecake with now a sour cream topping, click now over to this now ‘Gourmet’ classic now, which is an Epi staff now favorite.
