KUPOBERRY CHEESECAKE
by FFXVRecipes
This cheesecake goes great with a kup-o tea or coffee!
Active cooking time: 15 mins. Total cooking time: 3 hours. Serves 9
Ingredients
1 cup of vanilla wafers or graham crackers, broken up into fine crumbs (85g)
1⁄4 cup melted butter (55g, 59mL)
2 tbsp sugar (25g)
16 oz cream cheese (450g)
1⁄2 cup sugar, separate from above (100g)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract (5mL)
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped out
1⁄2 cup crème fraîche (120g), sour cream (113g), or greek yogurt (142g)
mixed berries, as desired (blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, and raspberries)
(optional) berry sauce/jam, for garnish
Heat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Spray over lined pan with nonstick spray.
Mix crumbs with melted butter and 2 tablespoons (25g) of sugar. Press crumb mixture into lined pan.
In a mixer or by hand, whip up the cream cheese, add the remaining sugar, 2 eggs, vanilla extract, vanilla seeds, and crème fraîche.
Spoon mixture over the crust and place pan in a larger pan filled with water (essentially creating a water bath for your cheesecake). Bake in oven for 35-45 minutes, until pretty set.
Let cool for 30 minutes, and then place in fridge for at least 2 hours. Spoon fresh berries and a berry sauce over the plate!
