Cheesecake Filling
  • 16 ounces Cream Cheese full-fat for best texture
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar can substitute with brown sugar
  • 1 cup Sour Cream Greek yogurt is a lighter option
  • 3 large Eggs at room temperature
  • 1 cup Butterscotch Sauce homemade is fresher
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract high-quality extract recommended
Crust
  • 2 cups Graham Cracker Crust consider gluten-free for allergy support

  • 1 cup Whipped Cream heavy whipping cream for best results

Method
 

Preparing the Cheesecake
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Crush graham crackers until fine crumbs, then mix with melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
  2. In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Gradually add sugar, then eggs one at a time. Mix in sour cream, butterscotch sauce, and vanilla extract until creamy.
  3. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly. Bake for 60 minutes or until edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
  4. Turn off the oven and crack the door. Let cheesecake cool in the oven for 30 minutes to prevent cracking.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. When ready to serve, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Top each slice with whipped cream and drizzle with butterscotch sauce.
