Perfect cheesecake. Now I have made a lot of cheesecakes but this is not only simple but probably one of the creamiest I've ever made. This is my suggestion for baking because 400 is going to give you a burned cake... No water bath as water baths often end up with a soggy crust and soggy crust is worse than a crack any day... Just simply bake the cake at 400 for 10min, then without opening the oven door reduce the temp to 200 than continue to bake for about 45 min, until it's almost completely set. Then I turn the oven off and just let it set in there til the oven is cool. Usually about an hour and a half to two hours. Then refrigerate it overnight. I'm telling you this is the best way to do it. There will be no crack and it will look a creamy off white. There ya have it. Oh and I also beat my ingredients with a mixer for close to 10 min. I have found it also makes a difference. Thanks.

It’s amazing!! This is the fourth time I’ve used this recipe. I’ll never ever be able to eat that from Cheesecake Factory again after making this. I baked it at 400 for 15 minutes then backed it down to 250 for the next 45 minutes before turning the oven off. Don’t take it out yet though. Leave it in the oven with the door closed and let it cool with the oven for another hour or so. The result, an absolutely perfect NY cheesecake texture and flavor without a single crack. I did not use a water bath for this. I used a springform pan from USA Pan that I got from Bed Bath, and Beyond. I think that has actually done a lot to help with cracking issues I’ve had in the past even with this recipe.

MY MOST FAVORITE CHEESECAKE EVERRRRRRRR!!!I have been making cheesecake for many years now and it was passed down by my Mom who is a queen at cheesecake and still makes them to give at Christmas time and New Year's to everyone as a gift of love with actual presents. Ssshh don't tell my Mom I said this is better than her's and that is saying A LOT!! I didn't use a spring form pan but a Keebler graham pie crust pan and changed is I used only 1/2 cup of sour cream and next time I will only use 1/4 cup to see if the taste is more sweeter, I also took the CDPEPPER proven true advice and baked it 400 degrees for 10 minutes then the remaining 45 minutes at 200 degrees, turned off oven and didn't open the door while I left it in there for an additional 1 1/2 before putting in the fridge overnight. What a difference. I had no cracks!!! Oh I didn't beat ingredients together for 10 minutes though just the normal 1-3 minutes. MHARMAN486 I wish I can shake your hand in person for such an excellent recipe that has changed the way I now do cheesecakes.

I have made this twice so far this week. After the first one, my wife asked me to make one for her Christmas party at work so I made this one today. No cracks and I did not let it brown by baking it at 400 all day long. I took the written advice in the comments and baked it at 400 for 10 minutes, turned it down to 200 for 45 minutes and then let it sit in the oven for 2 hours without ever opening the door. I also had it in a water bath. We love the flavor of this cheesecake and I have another one scheduled to be made tomorrow.

Best cheesecake I have ever made - appearance, texture-wise and taste! Followed others suggestions and baked 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then 50 minutes at 200. Left the cheesecake in the oven for 2 hours with the door ajar until cooled down. I used crushed Nilla Vanilla wafers instead of graham crackers and added 3/4 of a cup of sugar instead of 1/2 cup to the cheese mixture (wasn't sweet enough, probably due to the sour cream, when I made it the first time).

I’m giving this recipe 5 stars because it was the best cheesecake I’ve made. And I’ve made many. However, please note that the baking temps/times did not work for me. I ended up with a cheesecake that was very burned on the top. I scraped the burned layer off, but it was a painstaking process.With that said, this cheesecake yields perfect results; the ideal combination of dense and creamy. This is also a simple recipe, which I appreciate. Many cheesecakes have too many ingredients. I think the secret to this cheesecake is its simplicity, which should yield beautifully consistent results. My husband has eaten dozens of my cheesecakes through the years and he agreed this was the best. Big hit at the party we attended.Follow a previous reviewers perfect baking instructions:-400 degrees for 10 minutes.-Keep oven door closed; reduce to 200 degrees and bake for 45 minutes.-Turn off oven. Keep oven door closed. Keep cheesecake in oven for 2 hours, until cool.

I made this for my husbands birthday and everyone loved it. It was different than other cheesecakes that I have made in that it was more like the kind you get when you go out to a restaurant. I modified it a little by adding about a tsp lemon peel and 1 1/2 tsp orange peel for a nice citrus flavor, and I lined the springform pan with foil, then used 1 cup graham cracker crumbs and 1/2 cup ground walnuts and 5 Tbsp butter instead of the 6 and it turned out good. I also took the suggestion about the 400 degrees-I did it for 20 min, then turned the oven to 250 for the rest of the time and no prob with cracking. I am filing this to make again for sure.

This recipe was the most fabulous cheesecake I've ever made and, I've made plenty! I didn't make any changes in the ingredients but I did in the preparation. I lightly rubbed the sides of the pan with oil. I double foiled the bottom of the pan and put it in a water bath. When the center wobbled, I turned the oven off and opened the door and let it cool for 1 or 2 hours. Other hints are to NOT overmix. 10 min. is too long. I would mix on med. high just to blend in each ingredient - then 4 to 5 minutes to finish blending it. You do not want it "whipped", you want smooth.

Best cheesecake I've ever made! Dense, creamy, beautiful to look at and tasted like a dream. I made this for my husband's birthday and it was a hit! I substituted an Oreo crust and took many reviewers' advice to bake at 425 for 15 minutes, then lowered the oven temp to 200 for 45 minutes, then turned off the heat altogether and let it stay in the oven slowly cooling for another 3 to 4 hours. This is the first cheesecake I've make in a long time that didn't crack and remained intact for a beautiful presentation. The use of the sour cream keeps it lightly tart and not overly sweet. This wonderful recipe will be my go-to cheesecake from now on! Try it -- it will not disappoint.

This is an excellent cheesecake recipe. I've made it a few times and it has turned out great every time. A few general tips: After pouring the cheesecake filling into the pan, jiggle the pan to even it out. This will prevent cracks on the sides of the cheesecake. I always do a water bath. I know that some reviews love it and others hate it but I have always placed a 13x9 pan with 1 in of water under the cheesecake in the oven and it has never cracked. Not once. I cook the cheesecake on 400 for 15 minutes. Then bump the temp down to 250 for another 45 minutes. Then I turn the oven off completely and let the cheesecake sit in there cooling. Then I crack the oven with a wooden spoon for another hour. Lastly I take it out and set it on the counter to complete cooling. It is ready to be put in the fridge when the bottom of the pan has no warmth to it any more. Hope that it helpful to someone\!

I made this cheesecake following CDPEFFER’s recommendations on temperature and timing. But, I ended up with about 6 cups of extra cream cheese mixture. This is the second time I ended up with too much cream cheese mix. Has anyone come up with an idea for the remaining cream cheese? Please let me know thanks.

I have made this twice now, following the advice of CDPeffer. I baked it for 10 minutes at 400 and then turned it down to 200 for 45 minutes. I then turned off the oven and left it for about 2 hours. For some reason, mine cracked both times. However, after putting it in the fridge with cherry pie filling on it, both times, the cracks disappeared, and it completely melded back together. This cheesecake is delicious and creamy and our new family favourite.

This is a easy recipe to follow I used 26 oreo cookies cream too and 7 gram crackers 1/3 cup sugar and 1/2 cup butter. For the curse. For the top I melted dark chocolate while it is in the spring from pan I put the chocolate on top. Put it in the fridge intill cool. Cheese cake was in fridge over night before I put chocolate on it.
