Cheesecake, how can you not love a piece of rich, creamy, cheesecake topped with some fresh, sweet berries? I've never met a cheesecake I didn't like, this one is excellent, but I'll keep searching.
Combine Graham cracker crust with additional sugar, or if making your own, crush graham crackers, add sugar and melted butter, then press into a 9” spring form pan. Bake at 325 for 15 minutes. Cool to room temp before adding filling. Wrap outside of pan with foil and butter or spray interior sides.
Increase oven temp to 350.
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer combine cream cheese, butter, and cornstarch. Beat slowly, scraping bowl, add sugar while beating; once incorporated, add eggs, one at a time, then add vanilla, salt, and cream. Mix slowly until blended. Pour into prepared 9” springform pan. Place pan in another, larger pan, place in oven and add ½” hot water to larger pan. Bake 75-90 minutes at 350 or until top is golden and firm, internal temp should read 150.
Let cool 6-8 hours or refrigerate overnight
Notes
*I like to serve with lightly macerated fresh berries
