Recipe: New York Cheesecake

This is a recipe that someone had requested on my recipe for no-bake cheesecake. 

New York Cheesecake:
1 6-inch graham cracker crust
16oz (450g) full fat cream cheese
1 cup (200g) sugar
1 1/2 tbsp flour
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon juice
dash salt
3 eggs
1/4 cup (65mL) sour cream

If you're using a springform pan, which does work best for this recipe, wrap the outside of the pan in tin foil. The reason is to keep it waterproof when it sits in the water bath. So, make sure the tin foil covers all the tiny gaps. 

Make graham cracker crust and press into the bottom of the greased springform pan. 


In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, vanilla, lemon juice and salt together until smooth. 



Beat in each egg one at a time and then the sour cream. 



Pour batter into the prepared springform pan. 


Place the pan into a roasting pan full of 1-inch of hot water. 


Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F or 160°C for about 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. The cake should not look liquidy at all. 



Remove roasting pan with the cheesecake from the oven and allow to cool sitting together for about 45 minutes. 


Then remove the cheesecake from the water bath and carefully remove the outside of the springform. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to chill in the fridge overnight.

What makes a New York cheesecake as opposed to other recipes, you shouldn't have any cracks in the surface of the cheesecake.
This cheesecake is smooth and creamy.
Absolutely delicious.

Dress up a Sheet Cake: White on White Wedding Cake

Image
I've been thinking about all the things that have been cancelled because of Covid19 and I think the saddest is the weddings. So much expense, planning, excitement... gone. Now, I know most of you who had to reschedule your wedding will eventually have them. But I don't know how much money you would have lost because of the cancellation of your first planned wedding. So, I thought some of you might need to save money on your future wedding. So, I thought I would share with you a way you could make your own wedding cake out of a regular, plain sheet cake. I started out with a frosted sheet cake. You can frost it yourself or buy it frosted.  Then I thought I would use all of these tips, but I only ended up using the small round tip and the medium star tip. The petal tip and leaf tip weren't needed for this design.  Using a skewer, I traced two interlocking hearts as well as the monograms of the couple. In this case, T and C.  Then I traced over the letters with th

Dairy-Free Swiss Meringue Buttercream

Image
After going through the effort of making my vanilla cake gluten free, dairy free and soy free, I needed a dairy free frosting. American buttercream is easy to make dairy free. But the family I'm making the cake for prefers Swiss meringue buttercream. I googled how to make dairy free Swiss meringue buttercream, and basically every blog I found said that it wasn't possible. They all said you have to use butter. I am not willing to accept that answer. So, I decided to experiment a bit until I found a ratio that works. So, first off, here's the recipe: Dairy-free Swiss Meringue Buttercream: 7 egg whites 2 cups sugar 1 1/2 cups dairy-free margarine 1/2 cup shortening pinch of salt 1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 tbsp vanilla sugar 1 tsp butter vanilla flavoring (optional, if omitting, double amount of vanilla flavoring)  I'm using a stand mixer today with a whisk attachment.  I first whisk the egg whites, sugar and vanilla sugar, if using vanilla sugar. Then I h

Tutorial: How to Make a 2D Simba Cake Topper

Image
 I tried to make this character 3D. I really did. But it was so terrible I just couldn't bring myself to use it.  I eventually decided to try making a 2D figure. Then I could use a template. So first, here's the image I used: First, I cut out a yellow circle to use as a background. Then I added some brown to yellow fondant and rolled it out. I cut around the template and cut out the paws. Then I added the paws cut out of white fondant. Then I used a pointed scuplting tool to press the lines of the template into the fondant. Then, removing the template, I deepened the lines to make them more visible. I added a white muzzle and a pink nose. I painted some brown food coloring mixed with alcohol into the shadows of the face and ears. Finally, I added some undiluted black food coloring to the ears, eyebrows and eyes. How adorable is this? And so clearly Simba. This is a great method for those who can't accurately draw the characters themselves. In other words, perfect for me. Wa
