PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE WITH BOURBON-SPIKED CREAM



Pumpkin Cheesecake With Bourbon-Spiked Cream image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     dessert

Time 1h55m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups canned pure pumpkin
For the toppings:
2 cups sweetened whipped cream
Dash of bourbon
3/4 cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (1 1/3 cups)
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
For the cheesecake:
1 1/2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs (about 45 crushed wafers)
1 cup pecans, ground
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
2 pounds cream cheese, cubed and softened
1 cup packed light brown sugar
6 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Prepare the cheesecake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the wafer crumbs, ground pecans and melted butter in a bowl. Press into the bottom of a 12-inch springform pan. In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, mix the cream cheese until smooth. Add the brown sugar and process until blended. Add the eggs one at a time, processing until fully incorporated, then blend in the heavy cream. Add the flour, salt, cinnamon and vanilla and blend until smooth. Add the pumpkin and blend until smooth.
  • Pour the filling over the crust in the pan. Bake 1 hour, 15 minutes, or until the cheesecake is just set. Remove from the oven. Use a knife to loosen the cake from the side of the pan; this will prevent it from splitting down the center. Let cool completely before slicing.
  • Meanwhile, make the toppings: Combine the whipped cream and bourbon in a bowl and mix until blended. For the chocolate sauce, combine the half-and-half and butter in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Heat until a thin, paper-like skin appears on top; do not boil. Add the chocolate chips and vanilla and stir until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  • Remove the side of the springform pan and slice the cheesecake. Top each piece with a drizzle of chocolate sauce and some bourbon whipped cream.

Tips:

  • For a smoother cheesecake, use a food processor to blend the cream cheese until completely smooth before adding the other ingredients.
  • To prevent the cheesecake from cracking, bake it in a water bath. Place the cheesecake pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before serving. This will help it set and prevent it from falling apart.
  • Serve the cheesecake with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or caramel sauce.

Conclusion:

This pumpkin cheesecake with bourbon sour cream topping is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any fall gathering. The combination of pumpkin, cream cheese, and bourbon is simply irresistible. The sour cream topping adds a tangy and refreshing flavor that perfectly complements the sweetness of the cheesecake. This recipe is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
