Strawberry Daiquiri Cheesecake Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°.
• In a medium bowl, combine cake mix and pecans.
• Drizzle melted butter over mixture; stir until well blended.
• Press mixture into bottom of a greased 9x13 baking pan.
• In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
• Spread cream cheese mixture over crust.
• "Nuke" jam for about 45 seconds until thinned.
• Spoon over cream cheese mixture.
• Use a fork to swirl over cream cheese.
• I bake for 25 minutes or until edges begin to brown lightly.
• Do not over-bake or your crust will become a rock.
• Cool in pan for about 30 minutes.
• Cover and chill for about 2 hours.
• Personal note- When I want them to look fancy, I trim about ½ inch off all sides although the crust is my favorite part.

Steps:

• TO BEGIN: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 300 degrees. Make foil sling for 13 by 9-inch baking pan by folding 2 long sheets of aluminum foil; first sheet should be 13 inches wide and second sheet should be 9 inches wide. Lay sheets of foil in pan perpendicular to each other, with extra foil hanging over edges of pan. Push foil into corners and up sides of pan, smoothing foil flush to pan. Spray with vegetable oil spray.
• FOR THE CRUST: Process cracker pieces and sugar in food processor until finely ground, about 30 seconds. Add flour and salt and pulse to combine, about 2 pulses. Add melted butter and pulse until crumbs are evenly moistened, about 10 pulses.
• Using your hands, press crumb mixture evenly into bottom of prepared pan. Using bottom of dry measuring cup, firmly pack crust into pan. Bake until fragrant and beginning to brown around edges, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely. (Allowing to cool completely is very important to the end result.).
• FOR THE FILLING: In clean, dry processor bowl, process cream cheese and sugar until smooth, about 3 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. With processor running, add eggs, one at a time, until just incorporated, about 30 seconds total. Scrape down sides of bowl. Add vanilla and process to combine, about 10 seconds. Pour cream cheese mixture over cooled crust. Bake until center is almost set but still jiggles slightly when pan is shaken, about 45 minutes.
• FOR THE TOPPING: Meanwhile, in clean, dry processor bowl, process 6 ounces strawberries and ½ cup sugar until pureed, about 30 seconds. Stir strawberry puree and sour cream in bowl until combined.
• Remove cheesecake from oven. Pour strawberry mixture over cheesecake (cheesecake layer should be completely covered). Return pan to oven and bake until topping is just set, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer pan to wire rack and let cheesecake cool completely, about 2 hours. Refrigerate until cold and set, at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours. Slice remaining 5 strawberries thin and gently toss with remaining 1 teaspoon sugar in bowl. Using foil overhang, lift cheesecake out of pan. Cut into 24 squares. Garnish each square with 1 strawberry slice and serve.

Steps:

• Crush up the graham crackers into a fine crumb mixture, then melt the 4 oz of butter and add the sugar and butter to the cracker crumbs and mix until well incorporated.
• Pack crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9" spring form pan and bake this in the oven @ 325 degree for 8-10 minutes, then take out of the oven and cool.
• Mix the filling being sure to have your cream cheese at room temperature.
• Add your eggs 1 at a time until mixed well, but you don't want to beat the filling too much for this can cause the cheesecake to crack while baking.
• I add the rum and the triple sec at the very last and mix it until mixed well.
• Pour filling into the pan and place in the oven @ 325F for approx 1 hr 10 minutes to 1 1/2 hours (Start checking it at 1 hr 10 minute).
• I also use a water bath by putting an oven safe bowl underneath the spring form pan on the rack below, you may want to wrap the bottom of your spring form pan with aluminum foil just in case to prevent having a soggy crust.
• Once the cheesecake has baked for allotted time, I take it out of the oven and place on a cooling rack and run a knife around the inside on the pan to reduce the chance of the surface cracking.
• Let cool for a couple of hrs then place in the frig for another 3-4 hrs before covering and leaving in the frig over night.
• Next morning, remove from the frig and run your knife around the inside of the pan one more time and release the spring and remove the bottom from the pan.
• Hope you enjoy.

Steps:

• Bottom:.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9 by 13-inch pan with non-stick foil.
• Cream butter and cream cheese together (it will look a bit curdled). Add egg and mix until smooth. Combine creamed mixture with dry brownie mix, folding and pressing batter by hand until mixed. Mixture will be thick. Spread evenly in foil-lined pan and bake for 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
• Cheesecake Layer:.
• Beat cream cheese, 3/4 cup sugar, and vanilla with electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Stir strawberry puree into batter.
• Spoon strawberry batter over pre-baked, cooled brownie bottom.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until center is set and edges are lightly browned. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate while preparing topping.
• Topping:
• Combine boiling water and both boxes of gelatin. Stir until no more sugar or gelatin granules are visible and liquid is clear. Cool to lukewarm temperature. Add strawberry chunks to the gelatin and mix well.
• Pour cooled strawberry gelatin mixture over top of cooled cheesecake and spread evenly. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until topping is firm. Cut into small bars before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• Mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter or margarine and sugar together. Press firmly into a 13X9 inch pan and refridg while making the filling.
• Beat the cream cheese till smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar. Add the jam and mix well. Stir in the strawberries and then fold in the cool whip.
• Spoon over the crust, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set up enough to cut cleanly.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine ice, sugar and strawberries. Pour in lime juice, lemon juice, rum and lemon-lime soda. Blend until smooth. Pour into glasses and serve.
