CREAMY CHEESECAKE WITH PECAN CRUST AND SOUR CREAM TOPPING ...



Creamy Cheesecake With Pecan Crust and Sour Cream Topping ... image

This was one of the first cheesecakes that I learned to make, and it set the bar pretty high. The pecans in the crust give it an extra special touch, and the sour cream topping adds to the "wow" factor. This cheesecake needs to chill in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before serving, which is not reflected in the preparation time. It can be prepared up to three days ahead and kept in the refrigerator.

Total Time 1 hours 45 minutes

Prep Time 40 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 5 minutes

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 ounces graham crackers (to make 1-1/2 cups crumbs)
1/4 cup pecan halves
3 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 lb cream cheese, softened, cut in pieces
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 grated large lemon, zest of
1 vanilla beans, split lengthwise or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To make crust, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process graham crackers in a food processor until they become fine crumbs or put them in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Measure out 1-1/2 cups.
  • Chop pecan halves. Mix cracker crumbs with pecans and sugar. Add melted butter and mix well.
  • Lightly butter a 9-inch springform pan. Press mixture in an even layer on bottom and about 1 inch up the sides of pan. Bake in oven for 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Leave oven set at 350 degrees.
  • To make filling, beat cream cheese with sour cream at low speed until very smooth. Gradually beat in sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in lemon zest. If using vanilla bean, scrape its seeds with point of a knife into cheese mixture, or stir in vanilla extract.
  • Carefully pour filling into cooled crust and bake for about 45 minutes or until firm in center. Remove from oven and cool for 15 minutes. Raise oven temperature to 425 degrees.
  • To make topping, mix together sour cream, sugar and vanilla. Carefully spread topping on cake in an even layer without letting it drip over crust.
  • Return cake to oven and bake for 8 minutes or until topping sets. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
  • Remove sides of springform pan just before serving.

PECAN CANDY CHEESECAKE | THE SPLENDID TABLE



Pecan Candy Cheesecake | The Splendid Table image

Whenever I make this cheesecake for a party, my winning dessert from The Great American Baking Show finale, it’s always the first thing to disappear. The buttery, brown sugary pecan crust is reminiscent of pecan candy, an ode to Louisiana, while the dreamily creamy, slightly tangy filling is a lemony-rich homage to New York’s signature dessert, the cheesecake. Sometimes, just to show off, I add even more layers of texture and tartness by topping it with freshly whipped cream and berries, see cheesecake photo on page 176, or drizzling warm, creamy caramel directly over the cheesecake to contrast the chilled interior. The cheesecake gets its sublime texture because it’s baked in a water bath—kind of like a mini Jacuzzi. The water bath ensures the cheesecake is baked gently, while providing a steamy environment that makes for an extra creamy cheesecake. Plus, the water bath encourages the cheesecake’s top to remain perfectly flat, a geometric feat in a world of cracked top cheesecakes.

  • Preheat oven to 325º and grease an 8" or 9" springform pan with cooking spray. Make cheesecake filling: In a large bowl using a hand mixer (or in a stand mixer using the paddle attachment), beat cream cheese and brown sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, then sour cream, flour, vanilla, and salt. Make crust: In a large bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, brown sugar, and salt. Press mixture into prepared pan. Pour filling over crust. Wrap bottom of pan in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet. (If you want to bake the cheesecake in a water bath, wrap bottom of pan and place in a deep baking pan. Pour in enough boiling water to come up halfway in the baking pan.) Bake until center of cheesecake only slightly jiggles, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Turn off heat, prop open oven door, and let cheesecake cool in oven, 1 hour, then remove aluminum foil and refrigerate cheesecake in pan until firm, at least 5 hours and up to overnight. Before serving, make pecan pie topping: In a nonstick skillet over low heat, melt butter and brown sugar until bubbly (keep heat low to avoid burning butter). Stir in cinnamon, heavy cream, pecans, and salt until completely coated, then remove from heat and let cool and slightly thicken. (You can make the topping up to an hour in advance and keep at room temperature; don't refrigerate as the butter will solidify.) Release springform pan from cheesecake and spoon over cooled pecan pie topping. Serve.
