Steps

1
Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter, press firmly into the base of a 23 cm springform tin and bake at 180°C for 10 minutes. Cool.
2
Wrap the outside of the tin in two layers of foil so no water gets in.
3
Beat the cream cheese alone until completely smooth before adding anything else. Lumps at this stage never disappear.
4
Beat in the sugar, then the flour, vanilla and zest.
5
Add the eggs and yolks one at a time on the lowest speed. Beating air in now is what makes a cheesecake rise and then crack.
6
Fold in the soured cream and pour over the base.
7
Stand the tin in a roasting dish, pour in boiling water halfway up, and bake at 160°C for 70-80 minutes. The centre should still wobble.
8
Turn the oven off and leave the door ajar for 1 hour, then chill overnight before releasing the tin.
