New York Cheesecake
- 11/4 cups graham crackers (about 10 crackers)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 4 8oz pkgs cream cheese, softened
- 1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 eggs
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- Preheat oven to 300u0b0F. Place a shallow pan filled with about 3/4 inch of water on the bottom rack of oven.
- Combine graham crackers, sugar, and cinnamon in food processor and pulse into coarse crumbs. Add butter and blend until moistened. Press crumbs firmly on bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form crust. Set aside.
- In food processor beat cheese until fluffy. Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk and beat until smooth. Scrape down sides of processor bowl to loosen cheese; continue blending while gradually adding the remaining ingredients in order: eggs, flour, vanilla, and lemon juice.
- Pour into prepared pan. Bake 70 minutes until center is set. Do not open the oven while baking; this allows the steam to escape and will cause the cheesecake to split open.
- Turn off the oven and crack open the door to allow oven to slowly cool for 1 hour (the inside of the cheesecake will continue to cook and become firm).
- Remove cheesecake to counter and let rest for 30 minutes.
- Remove springform and chill until served.
