Ingredients

How to make it

  • Find a very large mixing bowl
  • Beat softened cream cheese smooth
  • Beat in sugar till smooth
  • Add vanilla, sour cream and heavy cream and blend well
  • Sift in the flour or cornstarch and blend well
  • Lastly blend in eggs till well incorporated
  • Pour into a large 12 inch by 3 inch springform pan that has been coated with butter and dusted about 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • Pour in the filling ( reaches almost to the top of this large pan)
  • Bake in a middle oven rack: 325F for 1 hour straight oven method, low heat 225F for 45 mins-1 hour and 200F for 30 minutes OR until center is almost set cheesecake jiggles- depending on your oven heat, baking time may vary and you may have to adjust the temperatures
  • Note:
  • I prefer water bath baking but I had no pan large enough to place the 12x 3 inch cheesecake pan in, so I used the straight oven, direct heat method. Cake came out just fine with a few minor center cracks
  • Place cake on rack to cool completely- center crack may occur ( typical )
  • Then cover and chill over night before topping
  • May freeze cheescake if desired
  • Topping may be prepared and chilled a few days ahead of time,not best frozen but if you do: thaw and rethicken if necessary
  • For topping: Mix all bring to a boil till thick, cool , chill and top cold cheesecake
