Cheesecake for Two image

Don't be haunted by too-tempting leftovers. Make just enough cheesecake for two. With a jumbo muffin tin and scaled-down ingredients, it's possible!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 6h10m

Yield 2 small cheesecakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

Cooking spray
2 graham crackers
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon sugar
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
2 large strawberries, finely chopped
1 teaspoon strawberry jam

Steps:

  • For the crust: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 325 degrees F. Line 2 cups of a jumbo muffin tin with liners, and coat with cooking spray.
  • Pulse the graham crackers, butter and sugar in a food processor until fine and crumbly (the mixture should hold together when squeezed). Divide the mixture evenly between the 2 liners, and press it into the bottoms and about 1/4 inch up the sides with your fingers. Bake until the crusts are slightly golden, about 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • For the filling: Wipe out the food processor. Process the cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, egg, flour, lemon zest, vanilla and salt until smooth. Divide the batter between the 2 liners. Fill all the empty muffin cups about halfway with water. Bake the cheesecakes until they are just set in the center and just barely jiggle, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool to room temperature in the tin on a cooling rack.
  • Pop the cheesecakes out of the tin with the help of a large spoon, and refrigerate loosely covered until chilled, 4 hours up to overnight. Before serving, stir the strawberries and jam together, and top the cheesecakes with the mixture, dividing evenly.

Provided by Kiano Moju

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
7 oz graham cracker
2 cups sugar, plus 1 tablespoon, divided
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
32 oz cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup heavy cream
2 cups sour cream
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pinch kosher salt
1 vanilla bean
4 large eggs
boiling water, for baking
mixed berry, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease a 10-inch (25 cm) springform pan with nonstick spray. Line the inside edges of the pan with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the graham crackers, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the melted butter. Pulse to combine until the texture is similar to wet sand.
  • Press the graham cracker crumbs into the prepared pan, using a measuring cup to compact in even layer.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool to room temperature.
  • Once cool, line the sides of the springform pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, remaining 2 cups (400 G) of sugar, and the salt. Using an electric hand mixer, blend until well-combined and fluffy.
  • Add the heavy cream and beat to incorporate.
  • Add the sour cream, flour, salt, and vanilla bean seeds, and beat to combine.
  • Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and mix until fully combined, making sure not to over-beat. The mixture should be smooth and creamy.
  • Pour the cream cheese mixture into the cooled crust.
  • Wrap the outside of the springform pan tightly with foil and place the pan in a large baking dish. Fill the dish with 1 inch (2 cm) of boiling water.
  • Gently transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 1 hour.
  • Without opening the oven door, turn off the heat and let the cheesecake rest for 1 hour.
  • Remove the springform pan from the baking dish and unwrap the foil. Run a paring knife gently around the outside of the cheesecake to loosen it from the sides of the pan.
  • Cover the pan with plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator overnight.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the refrigerator and release the springform pan. Remove the parchment paper lining.
  • Top with fresh berries, if desired.
  • Dip a knife into hot water for clean slices, then slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!
