CHEESECAKE FACTORY QUESADILLA RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F. Place a large pan filled with 1/2 inch water in oven.
• Make crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs and cinnamon; add butter or margarine. Press crust onto bottom and 2/3 of the way up a 9-inch springform pan lined with parchment. Wrap a large piece of foil around bottom of pan. Freeze until filling is prepared.
• Make filling: Use an electric mixer to mix cream cheese, sugar, sour cream and vanilla. Blend until smooth and creamy. Scrape down sides of bowl. Whisk eggs in a bowl; add to cream cheese mixture. Blend just until eggs are incorporated.
• Remove crust from freezer and pour in filling. Carefully place cheesecake into preheated water bath. Bake for 12 minutes; turn oven to 350°F and bake until top of cheesecake turns golden, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove cake to a wire rack to cool.
• Make topping: Combine sour cream and sugar; spread over cake. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.

Steps:

• Spread one side of 2 tortillas with 1/2 the cream cheese. Spread equal amounts jam over cream cheese. Spread remaining 2 tortillas with remaining cream cheese, and place on top of first 2 tortillas to form quesadillas.
• Place quesadillas in a skillet sprayed with cooking spray over medium heat and cook 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Serve sprinkled with confectioners' sugar.
