The New York Cheesecake

Friday cheat night done right - make yourself a massive solo New York style baked cheesecake!

Use a food processor to crush 250g of any sweet biscuit (I used Scotch Fingers). Once fine, add 125g softened butter and mix again. Press this crumb mix onto the base of your baking dish. Refrigerate for 30 min.

While that happens, preheat oven to 140C fan-forced. In the same processor, add 500g cream cheese, 3 eggs, a dash of vanilla, less than a cup of sour cream and 160g caster sugar and mix. Pour the mix onto the biscuit base in the baking dish and bake for 45 min when the top is set. Let it cool before refrigerating for a few hours.

Top with raspberries and dig in!
