Homemade New York Style Strawberry

Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is almost set. It should still have a slight jiggle in the middle.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight.
While the cheesecake is chilling, prepare the strawberry topping. In a saucepan, combine sliced strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and the strawberries soften, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
Once the cheesecake has chilled and the strawberry topping has cooled, spread the strawberry topping evenly over the cheesecake.
Carefully run a knife around the edges of the springform pan to loosen the cheesecake. Remove the sides of the pan.
Slice and serve the New York-style strawberry cheesecake chilled. Enjoy!
