I lived on a dairy farm when I was young and my mom always had a lot of sour cream to use. She never wasted any, and this cheesecake was one of my family's favorites. It's great topped with blackberry sauce.

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Desserts

Time 3h40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

18 oz danish butter cookies
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 tablespoons melted butter
16 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 ¼ cups granulated sugar, divided
¼ cup sour cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons rum extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup vanilla-spiced eggnog
½ oz gelatin powder
½ qt heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Line a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the cookies into coarse crumbs. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and pulse into fine crumbs, about 2 minutes. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture clumps together, about 10 pulses.
  • Pour the crust into the prepared baking dish and press evenly against the bottom of the pan. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes, until set.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and ¾ cup granulated sugar together with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the sour cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, rum extract, and vanilla and beat until incorporated, 2-3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, microwave the eggnog for 30-45 seconds, or until just warm to the touch. Add the gelatin powder and whisk until dissolved.
  • Add the eggnog mixture to the cream cheese mixture and mix until well combined, about 2 minutes.
  • In a separate large bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and remaining ½ cup granulated sugar together, gradually increasing the speed, until stiff peaks form, 6-7 minutes.
  • Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the eggnog mixture. Refrigerate the remaining whipped cream until ready to serve the bars.
  • Evenly spread the filling over the crust. Lightly tap the pan on a flat surface to release any air bubbles. Refrigerate uncovered for 3-4 hours, until set.
  • Use the parchment to lift the bars from the pan and slice into 12 pieces. Top with the reserved whipped cream, if desired.
  • Enjoy!

ELIZABETH'S EGGNOG CHEESECAKE BARS



Elizabeth's Eggnog Cheesecake Bars image

"I was raised in a Jewish family in Los Angeles, so I didn't celebrate a white Christmas," Elizabeth Colling says. But there was always eggnog. She worked the holiday drink into cheesecake bars, dense on the bottom, silken on top. She spikes them with brandy for a grown-up taste and dusts them with fresh nutmeg.
