“New York cheesecake is just regular cheesecake that yells ‘eat me’ while giving you the finger”
How is New York cheesecake different from regular cheesecake? “Regular cheesecake relies on heavy cream and sour cream to thin the batter and create a silkier, creamier texture. New York cheesecake is heavy on the cream cheese which is why it’s so dense and rich” was posted on X/Twitter by Trio Bistro DC on February 3, 2020. “new york cheesecake is just sweetened cream cheese that’s been baked and I love it” was posted on Bluesky by “hella crops” on December 17, 2024.

Wikipedia: Cheesecake
New York–style or Jewish-style cheesecake uses a cream cheese base. Gil Marks traces the origin of the New York-style or Jewish cheesecake in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine to the 1930s, made famous in such establishments as Reuben’s Restaurant and kosher-style Jewish deli Lindy’s, opened by German-Jewish immigrant Leo Lindermann in 1921. Earlier cheese pie recipes called for cottage cheese. Cream cheese was invented in 1872 and made its way into American Jewish cuisine by 1929 according to Arnold Reuben, owner of the namesake restaurant, who claims credit for the recipe (as well as the Reuben sandwich) and is said to have won an award at the 1929 World’s Fair in Barcelona. Junior’s, established by Harry Rosen in 1950, is another NY Jewish establishment famous for New York-style cheesecake.

@theknittedlamb New York cheesecake is just the classic plain style on a biscuit base, no topping at all, or flavourings. I like it 😊

@civilianreader @T_Frohock A classic NY-style cheesecake is just plain with a graham cracker crust. No namby-pamby fruit or anything…

Regular cheesecake relies on heavy cream and sour cream to thin the batter and create a silkier, creamier texture. New York cheesecake is heavy on the cream cheese which is why it’s so dense and rich.
