How to achieve a smooth, crack-free New York style cheesecake
In short: This video demonstrates how to make a creamy New York style cheesecake using cream cheese and sour cream. You will learn the specific cooling technique required to prevent the surface from cracking.
The process begins by creating a base of graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter, which is baked for 8 to 10 minutes in a 325°F oven. To ensure even baking, the recipe uses a bain marie method, where the springform pan sits in a larger pan filled with hot water reaching 1 inch up the sides.
After baking for 1-1/4 hours until the edges are set but the center remains slightly jiggly, the secret to preventing cracks is to let the cake cool inside the still-warm oven for one hour.
