Time 5h10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (from about 9 graham cracker sheets)
1/2 cup sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Pinch kosher salt
Two 8-ounce blocks cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup blackberry jam, warmed until liquidy
1/2 cup raspberry jam, warmed until liquidy
1 cup white chocolate chips, melted

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Stir together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter and salt in a bowl. Press into an even layer in the bottom of the pan. Bake the crust until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
  • For the filling: Beat the cream cheese and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until the yellow disappears. Add the sour cream, lemon juice and vanilla extract and beat until smooth. Pour the batter over the cooled crust. Bake until the cheesecake is firm and set, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven. Run a knife around the edges and let the cheesecake cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • For the topping: Cut the cheesecake into 12 bars. Coat a straw or a chopstick with cooking spray. Press down in the center of each bar to form a space for the jam, cleaning after each use. Pipe the jams alternately into the center of each bar, then drizzle with the melted white chocolate.

Tips:

  • For the perfect cheesecake texture, make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing.
  • To prevent cracking, bake the cheesecake in a water bath.
  • For a smooth ganache, use high-quality chocolate and heavy cream.
  • To achieve a glossy ganache, add a small amount of corn syrup or honey.
  • For a more intense berry flavor, use fresh or frozen berries.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess crust.
  • Serve the cheesecake chilled or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

This berry ganache cheesecake is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy cheesecake filling, sweet berry ganache, and buttery graham cracker crust, this cheesecake is sure to be a hit.
