RumChata Cheesecake image

I like to experiment and make new and unusual-flavored cheesecakes. When I tried RumChata at a friend's party, I knew it would make a great cheesecake. For a pretty presentation, drizzle it with caramel syrup or topping, or sprinkle on some toasted coconut. -Christine Talley, Hillsboro, Missouri

Yield Makes ten 4 1/2-inch cheesecakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

Crust
5 1/2 cups finely ground gingersnap cookies (about 1 3/4 pounds)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
Filling
1/2 cup dark rum
4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 1 /2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
2 1/2 cups sour cream
7 tablespoons sugar
1 3/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Rum-Caramel Sauce

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Blend ground cookies and both sugars in processor. Add butter and process to blend. Divide cookie mixture among ten 4 1/2-inch-diameter springform pans with 1 1/2-inch-high sides (about 1/2 cup packed per pan). Press crust onto bottoms and up sides of pans.
  • For filling:
  • Position racks in top and bottom thirds of oven; preheat to 325°F. Boil rum in small saucepan until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 1 minute. Cool.
  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese in large bowl on low speed until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating on low speed just to blend after each addition, occasionally scraping sides of bowl. Beat in spices, then cream, vanilla, and cooled rum just to blend. Divide filling among prepared crusts (about 1 cup per pan).
  • Place cheesecakes on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Bake until tops appear set, puffed, and golden at edges but still move slightly in center when shaken, reversing sheets after 20 minutes, about 40 minutes total. Cool 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare topping:
  • Whisk sour cream, sugar, and vanilla in large bowl. Divide topping among hot cheesecakes, about 1/4 cup each, spreading to meet edges of crusts. Bake 10 minutes. Run knife around each cake to loosen crust from pan. Place hot cheesecakes directly in refrigerator.
  • Chill uncovered overnight. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; keep chilled.) Serve with Rum-Caramel Sauce.

Tips:

  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before you start. This will help it mix smoothly and avoid lumps.
  • Use a springform pan for the cheesecake. This will make it easy to remove the cheesecake from the pan once it's done baking.
  • Don't overmix the cheesecake batter. Overmixing can cause the cheesecake to be dense and crumbly.
  • 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.
  • If you're making the coconut-strawberry rum sauce, be sure to use fresh strawberries. Frozen strawberries will not work as well.
  • You can adjust the amount of rum in the sauce to taste. If you don't want the sauce to be too strong, you can omit the rum altogether.

Conclusion:

This coconut-strawberry rum cheesecake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for any occasion, and it's sure to be a hit with your friends and family. With its creamy filling, coconut-strawberry rum sauce, and graham cracker crust, this cheesecake is a true crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this coconut-strawberry rum cheesecake a try. You won't be disappointed!
