A cheesecake recipe is a thing of beauty: we've been eating cheesecake in a recognisable form since around the 18th century, which just goes to show how enduringly popular it is. This recipe goes heavy on the cream cheese (that's what makes it New York style), and we're very much in favour of how indulgent it is. We've chosen to top it with strawberries, but you can swap that out for any fruit you fancy.
Top Tips
This cheesecake needs to be chilled well so, if you can, make it a day ahead. For a different flavour, try using Italian amaretti (almond-flavoured) biscuits for the base.
