BAKED PHILLY CHEESECAKE



Baked Philly Cheesecake image

I've used this easy (and relatively inexpensive) recipe for years & gotten rave reviews. If they only knew it was so simple to make! Feel free to use a ready-made graham cracker crust. You can even carefully place it in a regular pie dish. We won't tell! =^..^=

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

FOR THE CRUST:
1 stick butter or margarine
2 c graham cracker crumbs
2 Tbsp white sugar
FOR THE FILLING
16 oz (2 blocks) philadelphia cream cheese
1/2 c white sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs
A CAN OF CHERRY PIE FILLING OR OTHER FRUIT, IF DESIRED

Steps:

  • 1. Put the cream cheese into a large mixing bowl & set out for about an hour. (You don't really need a bowl this large, but the deeper, the better since the filling likes to fly around the kitchen when you mix it up.) When the time is up, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 2. In a different microwave-proof medium-sized bowl, melt the butter for about 30 seconds. Add the graham cracker crumbs & sugar.
  • 3. Stir them together with a fork & put into a pie dish, savings a few bits of crumbs for decorating at Step #7. Using your fingers (or a spoon, if you want), press the crumbs up the side of the pie dish. Then flatten the bottom of the crust. Set aside.
  • 4. Going back to the bowl with the softened cream cheese, the recipe says to beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla, THEN add the eggs and beat again. (As you can see from the photo, I have a hard time following directions.)
  • 5. This is what it looks like when you do it as directed. =^..^=
  • 6. Whichever way you did it, beat the filling ingredients with a mixer until well-blended.
  • 7. Spoon into the prepared pie crust. If you remembered to hold back a few crumbs, sprinkle them on the top. (If you forgot, it's OK. The cheese cake will still be delicious. Promise!)
  • 8. Bake at 350 degrees F. for around 30-40 minutes, or until the center is almost set. Cool, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  • 9. Top with fruit and/or whipped cream, if desired.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons margarine, melted
3 (8 ounce) packages Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
pie filling (optional) or sundae sauce, to top cheesecake (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F degrees.
  • Combine crumbs, sugar and melted margarine and press onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven and raise oven temperature to 450F degrees.
  • To make filling, combine softened cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer, beating at medium speed until well mixed.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition; blend in vanilla then pour into crust.
  • Bake for 10 minutes at 450F, then reduce heat to 250F and for 25-30 minutes more, or until set.
  • Loosen cake from rim of pan; cool before removing rim of pan.
  • Chill; top individual slices with desired topping, if any, just before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final product, so it's important to use the best ingredients you can find. This means using fresh cream cheese, eggs, and milk, as well as high-quality graham crackers for the crust.
  • Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature: This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients and prevent lumps.
  • Don't overbeat the batter: Overbeating can cause the cheesecake to become dense and crumbly. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving: This will help it to set properly and develop its full flavor.
