Recipe 2: New York cheesecake made from Yubileinoye cookies and Philadelphia cheese

The long-awaited Philadelphia cheese finally arrived and I baked a normal, human cheesecake. My first experience with mascarpone cheesecake was quite different in both taste and texture. In a word, I was very, very pleased with the result.

NB! If this recipe seems too complicated for you, pay attention to No-Bake Cheesecake!

For the base:

200 g shortbread cookies such as “Yubileiny”, “Slodych”, “Baked milk” 110 g butter

For filling:

600 g Philadelphia cheese 3 eggs 150 ml heavy cream 150 g powdered sugar 1 tsp. vanilla essence

1 tsp lemon zest and/or 1 tbsp. lemon juice optional

All ingredients should be at room temperature.

Grind the cookies into crumbs, add melted butter, mix.

We compact the mixture along the bottom and sides of a springform pan with a diameter of 21-22 cm.

Place in an oven preheated to 160 degrees for 10 minutes. We take it out and cool it.

Beat the cheese with a whisk with powdered sugar until smooth.

Gradually add cream, eggs and vanilla. We try not to overbeat the mixture - if the mixture is oversaturated with air bubbles, the cheesecake may swell and crack during baking.

Pour the cheese mixture into the mold.

We wrap the mold with a double layer of foil so that liquid does not flow into it, place it in another mold of larger diameter and pour so much water into the last one so that it reaches from the middle of the sides of the mold with the cheesecake. Place in an oven preheated to 160 degrees for an hour and 20 minutes.

After this time, turn off the oven, open the door slightly and leave it like that for another hour. After this, take out the cheesecake and put it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.

Before serving, run a knife along the sides of the pan, remove the side and transfer the cheesecake to a plate. Decorate as desired.

Three chocolate cheesecake

Before you start preparing the cheesecake, you need to decide on the form in which we will assemble the dessert. You can use either a regular culinary ring or a springform ring. Diameter from 17 to 19 cm.

Prepare the ingredients for making the cheesecake base. It's like the foundation for a house. Without the base, the cheesecake would be considered a giant panna cotta.

Prepare the form. We place the ring on the surface on which we will assemble the cake. I have a round cutting board (in fact, it’s specifically for cakes; I don’t cut anything on it). For reliability, fix the ring with a small amount of tape. It is better to line the edge inside the ring with acetate film - this way the cheesecake will not stick to the edge and the sides of the dessert will look beautiful and even. We also fix the film with tape. If there is no film, then we can do without it, what can we do...

Grind Oreo cookies (150 g) into crumbs. Right along with the filling, it doesn’t interfere. The most convenient way to crumble cookies is with a blender or chopper. But you can also put the cookies in a bag and roll them with a rolling pin, a simple folk method.

Melt the butter (20 g), add it and milk (10 g) to the shortbread crumbs and mix until smooth. The result is a wet plastic crumb - an ideal material for our base.

Carefully place the resulting mass into a ring, distribute it evenly and compact it with something flat, for example, the bottom of an aluminum mug. The cheesecake base is ready. We put the ring with the base in the refrigerator.

Now let's make the main creamy mixture for the cheesecake. We prepare all the necessary ingredients for this.

First, soak the gelatin in advance. Pour cold water (70 ml) into a small bowl, add gelatin (8 g) and mix well. If you have instant gelatin, then there is no need for pre-soaking. In any case, we focus on the instructions on the packaging.

Cream cheese is stored in the refrigerator, so when cold it has a fairly dense structure. We need to heat it so that the cheese “melts” and becomes soft, with the consistency of low-fat sour cream. It is much more convenient to work with cheese in this form, other ingredients are easily combined with it, and the finished mass when pouring the cheesecake is quite liquid and fits evenly into the mold.

We will heat the cream cheese in a water bath. Therefore, put the cheese (400 g) either in a metal bowl or in a saucepan, add sugar (120 g), collect a “bowl on a saucepan” water bath and slowly heat the bowl with cream cheese, stirring from time to time so that the sugar dissolves and mixes with cheese.

There is no need to heat it up too much; after a couple of minutes in the water bath, we will get a porridge-like mass, which will be pleasant to work with in the future. It looks like perfect semolina porridge - smooth and without lumps.

Heat the gelatin in the microwave (or again in a water bath) until it is completely dissolved in water. We act carefully, the main thing here is not to overheat, otherwise the gelatin will partially lose its gelling properties. Usually 60 degrees is enough to completely dissolve the gelatin.

Pour the gelatin solution into the bowl with the cream cheese and carefully, without creating unnecessary bubbles, stir until combined. It is more convenient to mix in a circular motion.

In a separate container, beat the cream (120 g) to soft peaks. This is when the mixer whisk begins to leave a small disappearing mark on the surface of the cream, but when the container with cream is tilted, it flows over, that is, it still remains of a thin consistency.

Add the cream to the bowl with the cheesecake mixture and mix gently in a circular motion.

Then we act quickly and energetically, we cannot be distracted, so turn off the TV and hide the remote control. We divide the resulting cheesecake mass into three almost equal parts: 230 g, 240 g, and 250 g. These will be our layers with dark, milk and white chocolate, respectively. Why weren't they divided equally? So that the layers in the finished dessert are approximately the same height. During the creation of the layers (about 40 minutes), the whipped cream will lose a little volume (the white chocolate layer will lose the most, which is why there is more of it).

And immediately we begin to create a layer with dark chocolate. Chop dark chocolate (120 g) into small pieces in a small bowl, add cream (40 g) and melt the chocolate in the microwave or in a water bath. We must act carefully so that the chocolate does not curl from overheating, therefore, if we are working with a microwave, we do this: heat in the microwave for 5 seconds, stir for 10 seconds, and so on until the chocolate dissolves and a homogeneous mass is formed.

Mix the chocolate mass and part of the cheesecake mass (which is 230 g) until smooth, the color of the entire mixture should be uniform. Pour into the mold onto the base, shake a little to even out the mass and put it in the freezer for 20 minutes.

After 10 minutes, start preparing the milk chocolate layer. We work using the same technology as with dark chocolate. Melt milk chocolate (120 g) in cream (40 g).

Pour the melted milk chocolate into a bowl with part of the cheesecake mixture (which is 240 g) and stir until combined and an evenly colored mixture is obtained. We take out the mold and pour a new layer into it and put it back in the freezer for 20 minutes.

We do the same with white chocolate. After 10 minutes, crumble white chocolate (120 g) into a small bowl, add cream (40 g) and gently melt.

Add the melted white chocolate to the rest of the cheesecake mixture and gently stir until the ingredients combine. We take out the mold and fill it with a white layer. Place in the freezer for an hour.

Then we take out the mold, remove the ring and film. Now the dessert can be put in the refrigerator for several hours. During this time, the cheesecake will thicken, the taste will intensify and the dessert will be wonderful both in appearance and taste. Three chocolate cheesecake can be served in the form in which we prepared it. But it's better to decorate it a little. This can be done in different ways, it all depends on your imagination.

I prefer light minimalism in decoration, so I’ll just make some stripes of white and dark chocolate glaze like rocher (or as it’s also called gourmet) on top of the cake, but without nuts. Mix 10 g of dark chocolate and 3 g of odorless and tasteless vegetable oil, melt and pour into a pastry bag. We do the same with white chocolate.

We cut off small corners on the envelopes, adjust the lines and practice on the plate, and only then apply the design to the dessert. You can also simply make circles on the surface of the cake or any other design if you are an artist and poet at heart.

You can also decorate with berries, fruits, all kinds of sauces and syrups. Anything. After all, in front of you is as if a white sheet of paper, which represents an opportunity to show your talent.

Three chocolate cheesecake is ready! Before serving, the dessert must be cooled, so put it in the freezer for 1 hour. Cold cheesecake tastes better and is less messy when cutting. Enjoy your tea!

How to make New York Cake

1. The ingredients presented are designed for a cake in a 23 cm tin. For this dessert, soft Philadelphia cheese is used; you can also use Mascarpone or a similar cheese.

2. Right away we need to make a cookie base. To do this, place it in a blender and grind until crumbly. Add melted butter and stir until smooth.

3. Take a baking dish and lay out the base (along with the sides). To be 100% sure, cover the base with parchment. Place in the freezer until the buttered cookies are completely hardened.

4. Meanwhile, prepare the cream: mix cheese and sugar using a mixer. All ingredients should be at room temperature. Add eggs one at a time: add the next one only until the previous one is completely beaten. The result is a smooth and fluffy cream.

5. Then add sour cream, vanilla extract or vanillin and lemon zest (you can use lemon juice). Beat everything again with a mixer until smooth.

6. Pour the cream into our base and distribute it evenly over the entire surface. Wrap the baking pan tightly with foil to keep water out. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Now the baking dish needs to be placed in a tray with high sides. Pour water in there so that it reaches the middle of the cheesecake pan. Bake for about 60 minutes at 160 degrees.

7. After the specified time, turn off the oven and open the door. Leave the cheesecake in this position in the oven until it cools completely.

8. After cooling completely, cover with film and place in the refrigerator for 8 hours.

9. Then remove the mold and decorate the cheesecake to taste. For me it was seasonal fruits and berries.
