LAVENDER HONEY CHEESECAKE



Lavender Honey Cheesecake image

I love the scent of lavender, and the edible flowers make this cheesecake one of the most spectacular I've tasted. You can use lavender honey in this recipe for extra flavor, but even without it, the lavender is very distinct. -Julie Palmer, Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania

LAVENDER CHEESECAKE



Lavender Cheesecake image

After experimenting with lavender as an ingredient, I thought that it would make a good flavor for a dessert. Cheesecake seemed like a natural fit. I made a lavender syrup to form the basis for the flavoring. Directions for this are included. A byproduct of making the lavender syrup is crystallized lavender buds. These can be used as decorative elements or even eaten as a snack, yum! Also included are directions for frosting and piping. These are optional. I used the frosting because it provides a smoother, higher contrast background for the piping.

Time 2h30m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 (3 5/8 ounce) package graham crackers
1/4 cup powdered sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1 (1/4 ounce) package lavender (whole buds, not crushed or ground)
5 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup lavender syrup
5 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy cream, whipped
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sugar (to taste)
1/3 cup lavender syrup
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/8 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup water
food coloring

Steps:

  • To make crust, crumb the graham crackers.
  • Stir in the powdered sugar and butter until well blended.
  • Press mixture into 9" springform pan, going halfway up the sides.
  • Bake crust at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes, let cool before filling.
  • To make lavender syrup, mix sugar and water in a saucepan.
  • Add lavender to water (you don't need to use the whole package, I used about 3/4 pkg).
  • Simmer until you have a heavy syrup (approx reduced by half).
  • Remove lavender buds (place buds on a plate to cool and crystallize for use as decoration if desired). You now have the lavender syrup used in later steps.
  • To make filling, soften the cream cheese in a large mixing bowl (it helps to remove from refrigerator a little beforehand).
  • Add sugar 1/2 cup at a time, mixing in well after each addition.
  • Mix in sour cream.
  • Mix in vanilla and lavender syrup.
  • Whisk eggs and yolks in a small bowl.
  • Add egg mixture to batter and mix in until just mixed.
  • Fold in whipped cream taking care not to over mix.
  • Pour into cooled crust.
  • Bake at 450 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 225 degrees and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Turn off heat and open oven door slightly, let cool in oven 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on the counter 30 minutes.
  • At this point it should be cool enough to run a knife around the outside to make sure it has separated from the pan and remove the springform side.
  • Leave on pan bottom and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • To make frosting, mix sour cream and sugar, sweetening to taste.
  • Spread on top of chilled cheesecake to make a smooth flat surface, quantity of sweetened sour cream may need to be adjusted depending on amount of shrinkage in the middle.
  • To make piping, whisk together lavender syrup and cornstarch in a saucepan.
  • Add lemon juice and water.
  • Stir over medium heat until mixture thickens.
  • Color with food dye to desired shade of purple (or whatever you prefer).
  • Let cool before decorating.

Time 35m

Yield 16 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon lavender buds
1 teaspoon lavender buds
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325. Put sugar and lavender buds in a food processor and pulse together.

NO-BAKE BROWNIE CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



No-Bake Brownie Cheesecake Recipe by Tasty image

This cheesecake could not be easier - you don't even have to turn on your oven, making it perfect for those hot summer nights. It all starts with a box of brownie mix that gets folded into whipped cream cheese, a little sour cream, and some sugar. If you're worried about consuming raw flour, don't fret! We heat the brownie mix to kill any harmful bacteria and make it safe to eat.

Categories     Desserts

Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

24 chocolate sandwich cookies, plus 8, halved, divided
½ stick unsalted butter, melted
1 box brownie mix
24 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
¼ cup heavy cream, room temperature
½ cup sour cream, room temperature
whipped cream, for garnish

Steps:

  • Add 24 chocolate sandwich cookies to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until broken down into fine crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl and add the melted butter. Stir until well combined and the consistency resembles wet sand.
  • Transfer the crust mixture to a 9-inch springform pan and firmly pat down in an even layer.
  • Add the brownie mix to a large, heat-proof bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). This will help kill any harmful bacteria. Set aside.
  • Add the cream cheese to a separate large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, heavy cream, and sour cream and beat until the filling is smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Gradually add the brownie mix and beat on low speed until fully incorporated and smooth, 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, until the filling is set.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the fridge, unwrap, and release the springform. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with whipped cream and the 8 halved chocolate sandwich cookies.
  • Slice and serve. Leftover cheesecake will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: This will ensure that your cheesecake is rich and flavorful. Look for fresh lavender, high-quality chocolate, and full-fat cream cheese.
  • Bloom the lavender: This will help to release the lavender's flavor and aroma. To bloom the lavender, combine it with a small amount of hot water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cheesecake tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking. To bake the cheesecake in a water bath, place the cheesecake pan in a larger pan filled with hot water.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly: This will help the cheesecake to set and firm up. Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

Conclusion:

Lavender brownie cheesecake is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich and creamy filling, fudgy brownie base, and floral lavender flavor, this cheesecake is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give lavender brownie cheesecake a try. You won't be disappointed.
