MAPLE CHEESECAKE

Categories     dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces shortbread cookies, finely crushed (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pan
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
2/3 cup maple sugar
3/4 cup sour cream
6 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup pure maple syrup (grade A; dark or robust), plus more for serving
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 325˚. Combine the crushed cookies, melted butter and salt in a large bowl. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch round springform pan. Bake until golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a rack; let cool 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the maple sugar and beat, scraping down the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the sour cream. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until combined. Beat in the maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
  • Brush the side of the pan above the crust with melted butter. Wrap the outside of the pan (bottom and halfway up the side) with foil to prevent leaks; set in a large roasting pan. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
  • Transfer the cheesecake in the roasting pan to the oven and carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan so it comes about halfway up the side of the springform pan. Bake until the edges of the cheesecake are set but the center still jiggles slightly, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 1/2 hours. Turn off the oven and open the door for 5 seconds to let out some heat. Close the oven door and leave the cheesecake in the oven until fully set on top but the center still jiggles slightly, about 1 hour.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and remove the foil. Transfer to a rack and let cool 2 hours in the pan. Run a thin knife around the edge of the cheesecake to loosen (do not remove the springform ring), then cover and refrigerate until chilled and set, at least 8 hours or overnight. Serve with maple syrup for drizzling.

NEW YORK MAPLE-WALNUT CHEESECAKE



New York Maple-Walnut Cheesecake image

Why doesn't maple syrup find its way to American cheese platters the way chestnut honey does to Italian ones? We think it works particularly well with subtle, creamy cheeses, a conviction that inspired our riff on a classic New York cheesecake.

Categories     cakes, dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup graham-cracker crumbs
1 cup plus 6 tablespoons sugar, divided
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 pounds cream cheese
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup grade A medium amber maple syrup
4 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon cornstarch
4 ounces walnut halves (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix the graham-cracker crumbs with 2 tablespoons of the sugar and stir with a fork to combine. Grease the sides of a 9-inch springform pan and sprinkle it with the cracker mixture, shaking any excess back into the bowl. Add the melted butter to the bowl and toss with a fork until the butter has moistened the crumb mixture. Scatter the crumbs evenly over the pan bottom and press into it using the bottom of a straight-sided glass. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool. Raise the heat in the oven to 500 degrees.
  • With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until it is soft and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix the flour with the remaining sugar and add it and half the maple syrup to the cheese in thirds, mixing after each addition. Add the eggs and the yolks to the batter one by one, beating after each addition. Add the heavy cream and mix again. Pour the batter into the crust and bake for 15 minutes. Lower the oven to 200 degrees and bake for an hour more. Turn off the oven, leave the door halfway open and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for a half-hour. Chill in the refrigerator for 4 hours and not more than 24.
  • When ready to serve, heat the remaining maple syrup over low heat in a small saucepan until it bubbles and let simmer gently for 1 minute, until it has thickened slightly. Whisk in the cornstarch and turn off the flame. Add the walnuts and turn to coat. Spread them out on a piece of parchment paper to cool and harden into praline, then sprinkle over the cheesecake.

SIMPLE MAPLE CHEESECAKE



Simple Maple Cheesecake image

This recipe was printed in one of those Sunday magazine supplements. It was the first cheesecake I ever attempted and I continue to make it because it is so easy. I see some really nice, more elaborate and no doubt tastier maple cheesecake recipes on the site, and I'm going to have to try those as well, but in the meantime, it's hard to beat this for simplicity. The real maple syrup is pretty pricey, so I try to buy it in warehouse/club type stores. I have found I can get a huge bottle for the same price as a small one in the grocery store.

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h25m

Yield 1 cake, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups honey graham cracker crumbs
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon maple flavoring (I use the bottled artificial kind)
4 eggs
1 cup real maple syrup (not pancake syrup)
24 ounces cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, granulated sugar and maple flavoring. I mix it together in a big measuring cup with a fork. Press it onto the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
  • Beat the eggs, then add the softened cream cheese and maple syrup and beat it all together well, getting it as smooth as possible. Pour over the crust and bake one hour (or slightly less in my oven) at 350.
  • Let the cake cool before serving.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth cheesecake batter, make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing.
  • To prevent the cheesecake from cracking, bake it in a water bath. This will help to create a moist and creamy texture.
  • Use a springform pan to make it easier to remove the cheesecake from the pan.
  • For a more intense maple flavor, use pure maple syrup in the cheesecake batter.
  • If you don't have maple extract, you can substitute vanilla extract.
  • Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.

This maple honey cheesecake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
