Answer 2

AlwaysOve 's New York Style Cheese cake is the same as mine and it is to die for. Plain is the best, but I make a raspberry sauce strained and a blueberry sauce with it, so people can choose the topping and just drizzle it over. But I do a different bottom,
I use 150g flour, 75g sugar, 1 egg, 1 tsp. baking powder and 50 g butter softened, mix it with a fork and then pat into springform pan bottom and half up the sides, bake in the oven for 15 min at 350 , put in the cheese mixtures and return and I bake it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, turn the oven off and leave for 1 hour with door closed, then put under the broiler until small bubbles form and take it out and let cool in the fridge. Not as sweet as graham cracker crust.
