HOW TO MAKE NEW YORK CHEESECAKE

It’s no secret that New York Cheesecake has been a global favorite for decades. Cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and a graham cracker crust are the ingredients that go into making this decadent and thick cake. The cheesecake got its name from its birthplace, New York City, which is also the city where its popularity is at an all-time high today.

It is not totally known who invented New York cheesecake, although it is widely thought that it was Jewish immigrants in the early 1900s. They carried their cheesecake recipes with them from Europe and altered them so that they could be made using ingredients that were easily accessible in the United States. Many people have a special place in their hearts for cheesecake made in the New York-style, and it has come to represent the city itself.
