Time 4h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ¼ cups vanilla wafer crumbs
½ cup ground walnuts
5 tablespoons butter, melted
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 ⅛ cups white sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 ripe bananas, mashed
¼ cup banana liqueur
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons unflavored gelatin
3 tablespoons cold water
1 cup milk
⅓ cup white sugar
4 egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups heavy cream, chilled
12 vanilla wafer cookies

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the sides of a 9 inch springform pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the vanilla wafer crumbs, ground walnuts, and melted butter. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • In a large bowl, stir cream cheese to soften. Mix together 1 1/8 cup sugar and flour; stir into the cream cheese until smooth. Stir in eggs, one at a time, mixing until well blended after each one. Stir in sour cream, mashed banana, banana liqueur, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla. Pour over the crust in the springform pan.
  • Cover the bottom of the outside of the cheesecake pan with aluminum foil to prevent water from the water bath from seeping in. Place springform pan inside a larger pan. Place the whole thing into the preheated oven, and fill the outer pan with hot water.
  • Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. After the time is up, turn the oven off, but leave door closed. Leave cheesecake in the unopened oven for 1 hour. Before removing from the water bath. Run a knife around the outer edge of the cake to keep it from shrinking away from the center and cracking. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours, or overnight.
  • In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the cold water, and set aside to soften. Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until hot but not boiling. Meanwhile, whisk together 1/3 cup sugar and egg yolks until smooth and frothy. Whisk about 1/3 of the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture, then pour the yolk mixture into the pan with the remaining milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, making sure that the mixture does not burn on the bottom, until it is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat. Stir the softened gelatin into the hot pastry cream until dissolved, then stir in vanilla. Pour into a bowl, place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface, and refrigerate until cooled, about 1 hour.
  • When the pastry cream is cooled, whip heavy cream just past soft peaks. Stir pastry cream to soften, then fold in the whipped cream. Place vanilla wafers on top of the cooled cheesecake, then spread the vanilla cream over the entire top. Chill until serving. Run a wet knife around the outer edge of the cake before removing the sides for a cleaner look.

BANANA CREAM CHEESECAKE RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Banana Cream Cheesecake Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-3503

Number Of Ingredients 20

CRUST:
2 cups Nilla Wafers, crushed
3 tablespoons butter, melted
CHEESECAKE FILLING:
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese
1 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon banana flavoring
BAVARIAN CREAM:
3/4 cup whole milk
3/4 cup heavy cream
3 egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon banana flavoring
Garnish: 1 fresh banana

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Fill pan that is larger than the springform pan with 1/2 inch of water and place it into the center of the oven. Spray the inside of the springform pan with cooking spray and wrap aluminum foil around the outside of the pan so that water cannot get into the pan when it's submerged into the water bath in the oven. Use a food processor to crush the Nilla Wafers to a fine crumb. Mix the melted butter with cookie crumbs and press into the bottom of the springform pan. Place the pan into your freezer while you make the cheesecake filling. Make the filling by combining the softened cream cheese with the sugar using an electric mixer on high speed. When the mixture is smooth, add the sour cream, vanilla and banana flavoring and beat well. Take the 3 eggs, put them in a small bowl and slightly beat them. Mix into the cream cheese mixture. Do not over beat, just until well mixed. Use a spatula to pour all of the filling into the springform pan. Smooth the top, then gently place the pan into the water bath and bake for 70 minutes or until the cheesecake filling does not jiggle in the middle. Cool the cheesecake until room temp, cover and chill while you make the Bavarian cream. Make the Bavarian cream by heating the milk and cream in a medium saucepan over med low heat until boiling. Remove from the heat. Use an electric mixer on high speed to beat the egg yolks with the sugar in a medium bowl until mixture is pale yellow, about a minute. Add hot milk a little bit at a time to the eggs while beating. Pour the mixture back into the pan and heat over medium low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon (approximately 5-8 minutes). BE SURE THE MIXTURE DOES NOT BOIL OR THE EGGS WILL CURDLE! Pour back into the medium bowl. Dissolve the gelatin in cold water; let it sit for 1 minute, then mix it into the Bavarian cream with an electric mixer on high speed, along with the vanilla and banana flavoring. Chill the Bavarian cream until thickened (1-2 hours) then spread it over the top of the cheesecake. Re-cover and chill the cheesecake overnight. Garnish with whip cream and a banana slice.
