| Three 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature |

| 6 large eggs, at room temperature |
| 2 cups sour cream, at room temperature |
| 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, sifted |

DIRECTIONS
FOR THE CRUST:
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease a springform pan 9 1/2 inches in diameter and 3 inches deep with
butter. In a bowl, combine the crumbs, sugar and melted butter,
breaking up any large crumbs and mixing well. Firmly press the mixture
evenly over the bottom and about 2 inches up the sides of the prepared
pan.
|
FOR THE FILLING:
In a large bowl, break the cream cheese into pieces. Using an electric
mixer set on medium speed, beat until soft and creamy, about 3 minutes.
Add the sugar and beat until the mixture is smooth, 1-2 minutes. Add the
eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the speed
to low and beat in the sour cream, flour, vanilla and lemon zest and juice until thoroughly blended.
|
Remove
1 cup of the batter and place it in a small mixing bowl. Add the
strawberry jam, mixing thoroughly, and then gently mix in the chopped
strawberries. Pour this mixture into the rest of the batter and stir
just until incorporated. Pour into the prepared pan and jiggle the pan
until the batter is level.
|
Bake
for 1 hour. Turn off the heat and allow the cheesecake to rest
undisturbed in the oven until set, about 30 minutes longer. Transfer to a
rack and let cool. Cover and chill overnight before serving.
|
Just
before serving, run a knife around the pan sides to loosen the cake.
Release the pan sides and place the cake on a plate. Arrange the whole
berries evenly around the top, marking a slice with each berry.
