Yield Makes 12 to 16 (first-course) servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter, melted
3 cups soup-and-oyster crackers (small saltine crackers)
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 3 ounces)
4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
7 large eggs
2 cups grated Swiss cheese (about 8 ounces)
1 cup 1/2-inch cubes ham
1/3 cup chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Brush 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Finely grind crackers in processor. Mix cracker crumbs, Parmesan and 5 tablespoons melted butter in medium bowl to blend. Reserve 1/2 cup crumb mixture for topping; press remainder onto bottom and up sides of prepared pan. Refrigerate while preparing filling.
  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and eggs in large bowl until smooth. Mix in remaining ingredients. Pour filling into crust. Sprinkle reserved 1/2 cup crumbs over. Place cheesecake on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until filling no longer moves in center when pan is gently shaken, about 2 hours. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Let stand 2 hours at room temperature before serving.)

This cheesecake was delicious! The crust was crispy and the filling was smooth and creamy. The ham and cheese added a nice salty and savory flavor to the cheesecake. I will definitely be making this again!

This cheesecake was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This cheesecake was good, but not great. The crust was a little too thick and the filling was a little too sweet. I think I would try a different recipe next time.
