Our Grandma Libby is the reason we have so many delicious recipes in our family. Her New York-style cheesecake is one of our all-time favorites. It starts with a golden crust scented with lemon zest. The crust is filled with a thick, creamy layer of cream cheese filling. After baking, it’s topped with a rich vanilla bean cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche. Each bite is creamy and decadent, making it the best cheesecake we’ve ever had!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FAQs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Can I Use a Different Type of Crust for This Cheesecake Recipe?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely! You can try different types of crusts for this cheesecake. The crust in our recipe is made with flour, sugar, lemon zest, melted butter, egg yolk, and vanilla, creating a delicious and buttery base. If you want to switch things up, a graham cracker crust or a Biscoff cookie crust would work well too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I Substitute Cr\u00e8me Fra\u00eeche with Another Ingredient for the Topping?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t have cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche, you can use sour cream instead. The taste and texture will be slightly different, but it will still work well as a topping. We don’t recommend using whipped cream or Greek yogurt as they can change the cheesecake’s flavor profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I Make This Cheesecake in Advance?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Yes, you can make this cheesecake ahead of time. After baking and cooling, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight before adding the topping and serving. This helps the cheesecake set properly and develop its flavors. Add the topping at least an hour before serving and keep it refrigerated until you’re ready to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for the Best Cheesecakes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Cooking Method:<\/strong> This cheesecake is baked at a low temperature, avoiding the need for a water bath. This method ensures an even bake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Mixing the Filling:<\/strong> Don\u2019t overmix the filling ingredients. Whipping too much can make it too fluffy. Room temperature cream cheese helps prevent lumps, but a few small lumps are okay.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Room Temperature Ingredients:<\/strong> Using room temperature cream cheese ensures a smooth, creamy texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
