New York Style cheesecake is a creamy and dense style of cheesecake that is difficult to beat because it is so tasty. You can make one fairly easily. You may want to serve this with some fresh strawberries or even blueberries.
New York Style Cheesecake makes a dense rich cheesecake. This is like the kind you would find in the Big Apple. My advice on making a cheesecake like this is that it tastes better the next day, so make this one a day or two before serving. Also if you allow all of your ingredients to reach room temperature first your cheesecake is less likely to crack.
