New York Style Baked Cheesecake

What is it?

Dense cream cheese filling and a baked crumb base give this frozen cheesecake a firmer set than Sara Lee’s standard mousse-like version. The top’s lightly golden from the oven, and each slice should hold its shape cleanly once thawed. New York style usually means more cream cheese and less air, so the texture lands heavier and more compact. Compared with the regular Sara Lee cheesecake lineup, this one sits closer to a classic baked dessert bar than a soft, whipped slice.
