How to Make Ultra Creamy Cheesecake

Quick Overview

Prepare for a delightful culinary journey with this Ultra Creamy Cheesecake! With just a handful of ingredients and a preparation time of about 15 minutes, this recipe promises a rich, creamy dessert that everyone will adore. You’ll find that the baking period envelops your kitchen in a heavenly aroma that no one can resist.

Key Ingredients for Ultra Creamy Cheesecake:

• Graham Cracker Crust:
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 7 tablespoons melted butter
• Cheesecake Filling:
  • 5 blocks of cream cheese (40 oz total), at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups of sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until thoroughly combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan, creating an even layer. Once done, refrigerate for about 10 minutes to set.
2. Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar and continue mixing until well blended. Incorporate the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
3. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
4. Bake: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Bake the cheesecake for 60-70 minutes or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. (Don’t worry; it will firm up as it cools!)
5. Cool and Chill: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to achieve that ultra-creamy texture.

What to Serve Ultra Creamy Cheesecake With:

Pair your Ultra Creamy Cheesecake with a variety of accompaniments for a delightful experience! Fresh fruit such as berries or sliced peaches can add a refreshing touch. Alternatively, serve each slice with a dollop of whipped cream on top, or drizzle a fresh fruit sauce or warm chocolate sauce for an added indulgence. A cup of rich coffee or a glass of dessert wine can enhance the sweetness of your cheesecake, making it an exquisite after-dinner delight.

Top Tips for Perfecting Ultra Creamy Cheesecake:

• Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing, which leads to a smoother filling.
• Avoid Overmixing: Mix just until combined to prevent incorporating too much air, which can cause cracks.
• Water Bath: For an extra silky texture, consider baking your cheesecake in a water bath by placing the springform pan in a roasting pan filled with hot water.
• Chilling is Key: Be patient while the cheesecake cools and chills; it needs time to set properly.

Storing and Reheating Tips:

To store your Ultra Creamy Cheesecake, cover it tightly with plastic wrap and keep it in the fridge for up to one week. If you have leftovers (which barely happens!), you can also freeze them for up to three months. For freezing, slice the cheesecake, wrap each piece individually in plastic wrap, and place them in an airtight container. To enjoy again, simply thaw in the refrigerator overnight. If you plan to serve later, a quick reheat in the microwave can help bring back that creamy texture, making each bite just as delightful as the first.
