New York-Style Cheesecake

MARY FRANCIS·SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 2018
Yield: One 9-inch (12 servings) Prep Time: 15 minutes, plus 4 hours to chill

Cook Time: 70-90 minutes

3 (8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened

5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

1 cup erythritol sweetener

3 large eggs, room temperature

¾ cup sour cream, room temperature

2 teaspoons grated lemon zest

1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

1. Preheat the oven to 300° F and generously grease a 9-inch springform pan. Cut a

circle of parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan and grease the paper. Wrap 2
pieces of aluminum foil around the outside of the pant to cover the bottom and most

of the way up the sides.

2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, then beat in the
sweetener until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each

addition. Clean the beaters and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

3. Add the sour cream, lemon zest, and vanilla extract and beat until the batter is
smooth and well combined. Pour into the prepared springform pan and smooth the

top.

4. Set the pan inside a roasting pan large enough to prevent sides from touching. Place

the roasting pan in the oven and carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan
until the water reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
