Best 3 Rum And Chocolate Cheesecake Recipes

ESPRESSO CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE WITH DARK RUM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. For the crust, grind the chocolate cookies and hazelnut with the sugar into a coarse crumb. Add the melted butter and combine. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan. Bake crust for 10 minutes until set and place on a rack to cool. Once the crust is cool, wrap the outside of the pan in a double layer of aluminum foil to seal it. To make the water bath for baking the cake, place the spring form pan in a roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with water until it reaches half way up the side of the spring form pan. For the Espresso Chocolate Cream, heat 1/2 cup cream and add cocoa, espresso and salt. Whisk until smooth, let cool and add remaining cream and rum. Beat the cream cheese in an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add sugar and beat well. Mix in melted chocolate and, once incorporated, add espresso cream mixture. Mix thoroughly, making sure there are no clumps. Add eggs 1 at a time. Pour mixture into crust resting in the water bath. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes and then turn off oven and leave cake in for another hour. Cool and chill, at least overnight.;

CHOCOLATE RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch Bundt pan. Place chopped nuts in the bottom of the Bundt pan.
• With an electric mixer beat cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil, 1/2 cup of the water, and 1/2 cup of the rum on high speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan over the top of the chopped nuts.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes.
• To Make Rum Glaze: In a saucepan combine the butter or margarine, sugar, 1/4 cup of the rum, and 1/4 cup of the water. Bring mixture to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Pour immediately over still warm cake.

RUMCHATA™ CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• In food processor, crush cereal to fine crumbs. Pulse in remaining Crust ingredients. Press in bottom (and part way up side if you want) of 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes. Place on cooling rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325° F.
• When crust is cool, wrap bottom of pan with heavy-duty foil, making sure it goes up the sides a few inches. Wrap pan one or two more times with foil.
• In large bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in 3/4 cup sugar, followed by eggs, one at a time, and egg yolk, beating well and scraping bowl after each addition. With mixer on low, beat in remaining Filling ingredients until smooth. Scrape mixture into foil-wrapped pan; place pan in high-sided roasting pan. Place in oven; create a water bath by carefully pouring a few cups of water into roasting pan--enough to go up sides of cheesecake pan a bit, but not as high as the foil.
• Bake about 1 hour 45 minutes or until cheesecake is golden on top with a little wiggle in center. Turn off oven; leave cheesecake in oven 1 hour. Cheesecake will fall slightly (but should still have a flat top). Remove from oven; place on rack while you make Sour Cream Topping.
• Heat oven to 350° F again. In small bowl, beat Sour Cream Topping ingredients until smooth. Spread evenly over top of cheesecake; place in heated oven 10 minutes. Remove from oven, back on rack to cool 1 hour. Remove foil from pan; refrigerate cheesecake at least 4 hours before serving. To remove cheesecake from springform pan, wrap sides of pan with towel dampened with hot water until towel is cool. Loosen side of springform.
• Before serving, make Cinnamon Drizzle. In 1-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter. Add remaining Cinnamon Drizzle ingredients. Cook over medium-high heat until sugar melts and mixture comes to a boil. Boil about 1 minute. Remove from heat; cool 10 minutes before drizzling over cheesecake.
