I remember fondly my favourite baked american style cheesecake from Sainsbury's. I haven't been able to find anything like that since.
From the picture, this recipe looks pretty similar. SO it is on my to do list.I was browsing the magazine on my night shift and found this recipe. It was aaaagessssss ago, can't remember the name of the mag.
serves 12-16
200g sweet shortcrust pastry
500g cream cheese (room temp)
1C sugar
1C sour cream
2t vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1/4C cream -lightly whipped
1) Pre heat oven to 180C. Grease a 22cm springform cake tin
2) Roll out pastry to 4mm thick and use to line base of tine
3) Prick pastry all over, then chill well. Bake for 10 mins, remove to cool
4) Reduce the oven heat to 150C
5) In a bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar untill smooth and fluffy. Add sour cream and vanilla and beat gently to combine
6) Gently beat in the flour, then beat in eggs one at a time ( be careful not to overbeat at this stage)
7) Pour the cheesecake mixture over pastry base. Bake for one hour and 15 mins or untill filling is just set. Cool in the tin before carefully removing
8) Spread whipped cream over the surface of the cake to decorate. SLice to serve
Tip- Use a hot, slightly wet knife to cleanly slice cheesecakes
