What Is Different About New York Style Cheesecake?
New York style cheesecake is known for its rich, dense, and creamy texture along with its firm and smooth texture. It is made with a heavy cream cheese filling that is baked to perfection in a graham cracker crust. The cheesecake is typically taller than other types of cheesecake and is usually topped with a sour cream topping. The New York style cheesecake also has a distinctly tangy taste due to the use of a higher proportion of cream cheese and sour cream compared to other cheesecake recipes.
