Orange Cheesecake image

Rejuvenating my go-to "cheesecake" recipe, I add a spritz of orange juice and zest, and replace the graham cracker with a chocolate sandwich cookie. Orange and chocolate pair beautifully: the former is floral and sweet; the latter, deep and bitter. This is what you want to eat with friends in the sun, or as a solitary treat; the perfect balance between high and low, citrusy spritz and dark melancholy-as summer should be.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup Oreo cookie crumbs
3/8 cup butter, room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 orange, zest and juice
1 orange, for topping
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cohere the cookie crumbs and butter into a dampened sand. Line the bottom of a spring-form pan with this, packing down with your fingers.
  • In a bowl, cream together the cheese, sugar, vanilla, orange zest and juice, and lemon juice.
  • In a larger bowl, whip the heavy cream until you've got stiff peaks.
  • Fold the cheese mixture into the whipped cream until combined.
  • Pour this "cheesecake" into the prepared pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best).
  • Top with fresh orange slices.

This cheesecake was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter and fluffier cheesecake.

This cheesecake was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more subtle orange flavor.
