Red, White, and Blue 4th of July Cheesecake image

This is a great recipe for the 4th of July and kids love it. It is made from the best parts of a bunch of different recipes.

Provided by Anysia Deák

Time 10h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups crushed vanilla wafers (such as Nilla®)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
½ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
½ cup fresh strawberries
½ cup fresh blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and mix in wafer crumbs until combined. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Place the pan on a cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Remove crust from the oven and pour cream cheese mixture over top.
  • Return to the oven and bake until the edges are puffed and the surface of cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven. Run the tip of a table knife around the edges of the pan, set the pan on a wire rack, and allow the cheesecake to cool at room temperature, about 1 hour.
  • Decorate the top with strawberries and blueberries and refrigerate until completely chilled, 8 hours to overnight.

Tips:

  • Prepare in advance: To ensure a smooth and stress-free experience, prepare as much of the cheesecake as possible the day before. You can make the crust, filling, and even assemble the cheesecake. Just be sure to keep it covered in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final result of your cheesecake. Be sure to use fresh, ripe berries and cream cheese, and high-quality vanilla extract.
  • Don't overbeat the filling: Overbeating the filling can cause it to become runny and difficult to set. Beat the filling until it is just smooth and combined, then stop.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: Baking the cheesecake in a water bath helps to create a moist and creamy texture. Place the cheesecake pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water, and bake according to the recipe instructions.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly before serving: The cheesecake needs time to set and chill before serving. Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

This red, white, and blue cheesecake is a stunning and delicious dessert that is perfect for any patriotic celebration. The creamy cheesecake filling is swirled with blueberry and strawberry purees, and the graham cracker crust is dipped in white chocolate. This cheesecake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
