New York Cheesecake

Ingredients:

• 5 large eggs, room temperature
• 2 cups (one pint) sour cream, room temperature
• 4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
• 8 tablespoons (one stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

How To Make New York Cheesecake:

1. Generously butter the inside of a 10-inch springform pan.
2. Wrap a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil tightly around the outside bottom and sides, crimping and pleating the foil to make it conform to the pan. This will help to prevent water seeping into the pan when you put it into the bain-marie.
3. Position the baking rack in the center of the oven.
