Re: Does anyone have a great NY style cheesecake recipe?
THis is my mom's recipe- it is always a HIT!
Cheesecake
5 packs philadelphia cream cheese, softened
2 cups sugar
6 lg eggs
4 TB flour
4 tsp vanilla
16 oz sourcream
Graham Cracker Crumbs Crust:
1 1/4 c graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
5 TB margarine, melted
Mix Softened Cream cheese with sugar. Add eggs -- beat. ad flour, vanilla -- beat. add sourcream-- beat.
Press cumb mixture on bottom of spring form pan. Pour in cream cheese mixture
Bake 400 for 45 minutes
Bake 350 10 minutes
Turn oven off, leave door open 15 minutes
If the cake starts to burn, place a paper pag on top of it (my mom usually cuts a circle out of a grocery paper bag, or you could use parchment paper too) **Cooking in a water bath is also helpful to prevent cracking.
Refridgerate for a few hours...

THis is another AWESOME cheesecake recipe- my family has been requesting this one more then the traditional one for some reason....it is super yummy too!!
White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
INGREDIENTS
* 1 cup chocolate cookie crumbs
* 3 tablespoons white sugar
* 1/4 cup butter, melted
* 1 (10 ounce) package frozen raspberries
* 2 tablespoons white sugar
* 2 teaspoons cornstarch
* 1/2 cup water
* 2 cups white chocolate chips
* 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
* 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
* 1/2 cup white sugar
* 3 eggs
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
1. In a medium bowl, mix together cookie crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
2. In a saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to boil, and continue boiling 5 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Strain sauce through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt white chocolate chips with half-and-half, stirring occasionally until smooth.
4. In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and melted white chocolate. Pour half of batter over crust. Spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over batter. Pour remaining cheesecake batter into pan, and again spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over the top. Swirl batter with the tip of a knife to create a marbled effect.
5. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. (bake in a water bath)- when done, shut oven off, and leave door open for 10-15min. Cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours before removing from pan. Serve with remaining raspberry sauce.
