Easy Homemade Cheesecake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix graham crumbs, butter and 1/4 cup sugar; press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan.
• Beat cream cheese and remaining sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating on low speed after each addition just until blended. Pour over crust.
• Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 min. or until center is almost set. Run knife around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool before removing rim. Refrigerate cheesecake 4 hours.
• Top with pie filling before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine graham cracker crumbs, walnuts, and cinnamon sugar in the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Add melted butter and mix well. Press into the bottom of the pan and about 1 to 2 inches up the sides. Set aside in a freezer while preparing the filling.
• Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl using an electric hand mixer until combined. Add heavy cream slowly while beating on low speed; continue beating until smooth. Add eggs slowly, 1 at a time, beating on low speed until combined.
• Remove crust from the freezer and pour in filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until center appears almost set when gently shaken, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Remove cheesecake carefully from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool, about 15 minutes. Cut around the outer edge using a butter knife to separate from the pan. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes more. Unclip the side of the pan and remove the cake. Let cool for another 30 minutes; chill in the refrigerator at least 4 hours to overnight before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. In small bowl, mix crust ingredients; press in bottom of ungreased 10-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes. Cool 3 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat both kinds of cream cheese, 1 1/4 cups sugar, 2 teaspoons vanilla and 2 tablespoons lemon juice with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and well blended. On low speed, add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition until blended. Add flour; beat until smooth.
• Pour filling over crust. Bake 55 minutes. Cool on cooling rack 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix sour cream layer ingredients.
• Spoon and spread sour cream mixture evenly over top of cheesecake. Bake 10 minutes longer. Run knife around edge of pan to loosen cheesecake. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 2 hours. Cover; refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
• Before serving, remove side of pan. Garnish each serving with fresh strawberries and a drizzle of strawberry sundae syrup and a dollop of whipped cream. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• For the crust
• Mix cake mix, egg and butter for crust, with an electric mixer, until they are incorporated and crumbly.
• Press into an ungreased 9x13 pan. Set aside.
• For the filling
• Beat cream cheese, eggs, sugar and vanilla on medium/high speed with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes or until filling is smooth and creamy. Be careful not to overbeat the filling, as overbeating cheesecake causes cracks.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the cheesecake is set in the center.
• Remove the cheesecake from the oven and set on a wire cooling rack to cool.
• For the topping
• Mix up the sour cream topping by stirring together the sour cream, sugar and vanilla. When fully mixed, spread the topping over the warm cheesecake and allow the cheesecake to finish cooling.
• Once cool, spread the pie filling over the top of the cheesecake, cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve. Alternatively, you can refrigerate the cheesecake without the fruit topping. When ready to serve, cut the cheesecake into squares and top with pie filling.
• Alternatively, have a few pie filling options on hand and top the cheesecake squares with your guest's favorite topping.
• Enjoy!

Steps:
