New York Style Cheesecake has a rich, dense, smooth and creamy consistency that is hard to resist. When in the US it would be very difficult to walk by Cheesecake Factory without wanting to eat cheesecake. I would for no given excuse miss having my favorite cheesecake.

Once I moved out of US and during my stay in France and back to India, I longed to make the same cheesecake, but could not source that exact same cream cheese that they used. Until recently in India a popular Indian local brand (Britannia) started selling it. It works great and gives me a sense of satisfaction of having the real cheesecake.

Classic New York Style Cheesecake Recipe makes a perfect cake for any party or get together. Make this cake for dessert the next time you have friends and family over for dinner.
