Visual Recipe By: Ariez


Ingredients:

About half a cup of flour
1 tablespoon of cornstarch
4 large eggs
4 packet 8oz cream cheese
half a cup of yogurt (any flavor will do but plain is good if you want the 'classic' new york cheesecake
2 tablespoon lemon juice
vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
and fianlly crumb crust if you dont want to make your own. I will show you how to make your own at the end of this thread but I prefer spending 2 bucks instead of the hassle of making it. Also let your cream cheese sit out in room temp for about 2 hours, so it will be soft.

Step 1:

In a very large bowl, combine yogurt, flour and one tablespoon of cornstarch. Add cream cheese and beat well, I use my hands to mix it (gotta make sure your hands are clean though) this is better than a beater because the cream cheese is kinda hard.

Step 2:

This is what it should look like after mixing all those ingredients.

Step 3:

Now add your eggs one by one and start mixing it into your batch. I prefer doing it one by one to even out of eggs easier. The add your 1 cup sugar and mix evenly. Then your vanilla extract and lemon juice. Mix until its very smooth in texture.

Step 4:

I forgot to take a pic of the cheesecake before baking so I took a pic about 20 minutes into baking it. Bake for 325 degrees for about 60 min. or until the top layer is golden brown.
