kcalIngredients
- For the Cheesecake:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
4 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons flour
- For the Berry Compote:
2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries) 🍓
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice 🍋
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional for thickening)
Directions
- Crust: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
- Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract and mix. One at a time, add eggs, beating after each addition. Stir in sour cream and flour until smooth.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust, and smooth the top. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Berry Compote: In a small saucepan, combine mixed berries, 1/4 cup sugar, lemon juice, and water. Cook over medium heat until the berries break down and the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. If using cornstarch, dissolve it in 1 tablespoon of water and add to the compote to thicken further. Let cool before serving.
- Serve the cheesecake topped with the berry compote and enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure all the ingredients for the cheesecake are at room temperature for a smoother texture.
- Use a water bath to prevent cracks on top of the cheesecake while baking.
