Can you please share your cheesecake recipe????

Um, not easily. It's the New York Cheesecake from the April 2002 issue of Cook's Illustrated, pages 22 through 24.

I don't know what the status of copyright on that would be, and it would be pretty long to type out. It's actually easy to DO, but it's a lot of steps.

It's got cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, lemon juice, lots of eggs, and also extra egg yolks, sugar, and I think that's about it for the ingredients of the cake. The crust is just graham crackers, a little bit of sugar, and butter.

The recipe really requires a standing mixer, because it's a LOT of mixing -- and also scraping down the bowl dozens of times to mix all the bits that get thrown to the outside on in. It's baked at 500 degrees (260 centigrade) for ten minutes, then at 200 degrees (93 C) for another hour and a half, I think.

Does your library carry Cook's Illustrated? Some of the Cook's Illustrated cookbooks have recipes for cheesecake, but that's not the right recipe. This is the New York style, with 2 and a half pounds of cream cheese and six eggs, not the ones with two pounds of cream cheese. I don't actually know if they ever collected this one into one of their cookbooks, but it's much better than the simpler ones they have in those books.
