Categories     dessert

Time 10h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch fine salt
Four 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  • For the crust: Put the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl, cover with a paper towel and melt in the microwave in 10-second increments. Brush a 9-inch springform pan with some of the melted butter.
  • Stir together the remaining butter with the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pan, taking care to get the crust evenly to the edges. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool. Place the pan on a large sheet of foil and wrap up the sides. Place in a roasting pan.
  • For the cheesecake: Beat together the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the sour cream and vanilla and beat until just combined. Mix in the eggs by hand, one at a time, until just combined. (Take care not to overmix or the cheesecake will puff up and crack.) Pour the batter evenly over the crust, smoothing the top. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come about halfway up the sides of the foil-wrapped springform pan. Bake until the outside of the cake is set but the center is still slightly loose, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  • Turn the oven off and leave the cheesecake in the oven for another hour. Remove the cheesecake from the roasting pan to a cooling rack. Run a knife around the edge and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the pan once more and unlock to unmold the cheesecake. Transfer to a serving platter or cake stand and smooth the edges with a knife.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 14h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons white sugar
4 (8 ounce) packages full-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup full-fat sour cream, at room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar for crust in a bowl until mixture resembles wet sand. Transfer to the prepared pan. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press crumbs firmly into an even layer.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit on a wire rack until completely cool. Leave the oven on.
  • While the crust is cooling, beat cream cheese in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on low speed until smooth.
  • Add sugar, sour cream, and vanilla. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl and continue to beat until combined.
  • Gently whisk one egg with a fork in a small bowl; add to the cream cheese mixture and beat just until combined. Repeat with each remaining egg, whisking and adding just one at a time.
  • Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and firmly bang it on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles.
  • Place the springform pan (with the cooled crust) in an oven bag. Fold down the excess and wrap the pan in a layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Pour cheesecake mixture into the pan.
  • Place the springform pan in a large roasting pan and move it to the lower rack of the oven.
  • Pour 2 inches of boiling water into the roasting pan. Bake cheesecake until edges are puffed and surface is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 ½ hours. Tent the cheesecake with a sheet of foil if the top is browning too much during baking.
  • Turn off the oven; keep the oven door closed and let the cheesecake cool slowly for 2 hours.
  • Remove from the oven. Take the springform pan out of the water bath and set it on a cooling rack; let sit until it comes to room temperature, about 2 more hours. Place in the refrigerator until fully set, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Run the tip of a knife around the edges of the pan. Unhinge the lock and remove the pan sides. Use a warm, clean knife to cut every slice. Top slices with cherry pie filling. Keep leftovers in the refrigerator.

  • Mini Black-Bottom Cheesecakes. In these single-serving desserts from Grace Parisi, the rich and creamy cheesecakes are baked atop a chocolate-wafer base.
  • Triple-Cheese Cheesecake with Amaretti Crust. This killer cheesecake has an ethereally light, creamy texture and fantastic crunchy crust made from honey graham crackers and amaretti cookies.
  • Pecan-Praline Cheesecake with Caramel Sauce. You can use store-bought pralines to make the garnish for this fluffy cheesecake, but the quick praline recipe is worth the extra effort, as is the buttery caramel sauce that gets pooled on top.
  • Mini Chocolate-Hazelnut Cheesecakes. Former Food & Wine editor Grace Parisi breaks up whole, cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor with hazelnuts and butter to create a super-crunchy crust for these delectable little cheesecakes.
  • Mini Cheesecakes with Wine Gelées. Pastry chef Kate Zuckerman uses goat cheese to lighten the texture and tangy crème fraîche to cut the sweetness in these mini cheesecakes.
  • Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars with Caramel Swirl. These rich chocolate-crusted bars are topped with a homemade caramel that sinks into the pumpkin cheesecake batter during baking.
  • Icebox Chocolate Cheesecake. Grace Parisi brilliantly layers chocolate cookies with a quick mix of cream cheese, chocolate syrup, and a little water to form this icebox cheesecake.

  • Strawberry Almond Cheesecake with Matzoh Crust. This silky cheesecake gets sweetness and tang from a blend of cream cheese and sour cream. Matzo meal and ground almonds replace the usual graham crackers in the crust for a nutty, toasty crunch.
