20cmspringform pan
aluminum foil
Baking dish in which the Springform has spacefor water bath
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180 ° C and grease the springform pan. Lay out with baking paper. A circle for the bottom and a strip for the walls. Wrap the springform with aluminum foil.
base
Put the ingredients in a blender and finely grind. Put into the springform pan and firmly press down into the bottom and up the side of the pan. You can use a spoon or your fingers . Refrigerate for 10 minutes and then bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Make sure that the base doesn´t burn. Set it out to cool.
filling
In a small bowl mix together the eggs. Set aside.
Put cream cheese in a mixing bowl and mix until creamy. Add sugar and corn starch and mix at medium speed.(30 sec)
Scrap down the sides. Slowly mix the eggs in the mixture then add the whipped cream and vanilla. Pour the batter in the springform pan. Possibly tap the form on the table top that the air bubbles leave the filling.
Place the cake in a deeper baking tray or a square brownie dish (see picture) and pour hot water into the pan below. Bake on the middle rack for an hour and 30 minutes. The cake will puff up in the oven but will settle down after cooling.
After baking let the cheesecake slowly cool down for 1 hour in the oven by turning off the oven, and crack the door open. The difference too hot and cold isn´t too big and the cake can slowly relaxe.
Then let it cool completely in the mold and let it chill overnight in the fridge.
The next day, remove the pan and enjoy with strawberry sauce.
strawberry sauce
Slice 200 g of strawberries.
Add 400 g strawberries, starch, sugar, vanilla in a blender, place in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Set aside and fold in the strawberry slices.
Notes
If you want a vegan New York cheesecake. Use soy products and egg replacement powder. But I have´t tried this before.
