SLOW-COOKER BROWN SUGAR CHEESECAKE



Slow-Cooker Brown Sugar Cheesecake image

The moist environment of a slow cooker works double duty on cheesecake: it prevents cracks from forming and helps achieve a smooth and creamy texture. We loved the dessert topped with ripe summer peaches, but berries work well here too.

Categories     dessert

Time 10h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 graham crackers, broken in half
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon lightly packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Pinch fine salt
3 large eggs, at room temperature
3 small ripe peaches, pitted and cut in to 1/4-inch wedges

Steps:

  • Loosely roll a large piece of aluminum foil (about 20-inches long) into a 1-inch cylinder. Form a ring with the foil, about 7 inches in diameter. Fill a 6-quart slow cooker with 1/2 inch of water and place the foil ring in the bottom.
  • Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely ground. Add 4 tablespoons of the melted butter and pulse to combine; the mixture should look like wet sand. Brush the inside of an 8-inch springform pan with the remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pan, and one-third of the way up the sides. Use the bottom of a round drinking glass to help press the crumb mixture into the pan.
  • Wipe out the food processor, then add the cream cheese, 1 cup of the brown sugar, the sour cream, vanilla and salt, and blend until very smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs, pulsing until smooth and uniform. Pour the filling into the crust.
  • Gently place the cheesecake on the foil ring in the slow cooker. Drape a double layer of paper towels over the opening of the slow cooker and place the lid over the paper towels (the ends of the paper towels should come out from under the lid). Cook on low heat until the cheesecake is just set, but still jiggles slightly when the pan is moved, 4 hours.
  • Turn off the heat and remove the lid. Wipe out the inside of the lid and replace the paper towels with new paper towels, and cover the slow cooker again. Cool the cake in the slow cooker, 2 to 3 hours.
  • Remove the cheesecake, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
  • One hour before serving, place the peaches in a mixing bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Toss to combine and macerate for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
  • Run a small knife around the edge of the cheesecake and remove the outer ring of the pan. Spoon the peaches, along with any of the juices, over the cheesecake to serve.

CROCK-POT / SLOW-COOKER CHEESECAKE



Crock-Pot / Slow-Cooker Cheesecake image

This is an easy recipe for a cheesecake with an unbelievably silky texture because the machine steams the cake as it bakes. Recipe is from Beth Hensperger and was printed in "Food & Wine" (November 2007). You must resist the urge to peek inside as it is cooking-the lid must stay closed to retain heat. Cake must be chilled for at least 4 hours.

Time 3h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2/3 cup sugar, plus
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter, cinnamon, 1 tablespoon of the sugar and a pinch of salt. Press the crumbs over the bottom and 1 inch up the side of a 6-inch springform pan that's 3 inches deep.
  • In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle, combine the cream cheese with the flour, the remaining 2/3 cup of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Beat at medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the side of the bowl and add the eggs and the almond extract. Beat at medium speed until blended. Add the sour cream and beat until smooth. Pour the batter into the springform pan.
  • Fill a 6- to 7-quart round or oval slow cooker with 1/2 inch of water and position a rack in the bottom. Set the cheesecake on the rack. Cover the slow cooker with a triple layer of paper towels and the lid. Turn the cooker to high and cook for 2 hours without peeking. Turn off the heat and let stand until the slow cooker has cooled, 1 hour.
  • Remove the lid and the paper towels and transfer the cheesecake to a rack to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours.
  • Heat a sharp, thin-bladed knife under hot water; dry the knife. Carefully run the knife around the edge of the cheesecake. Release the spring and lift the cheesecake out of the mold. Cut into wedges and serve.

EASY SLOW COOKER CHEESECAKE RECIPE



Easy Slow Cooker Cheesecake Recipe image

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 (8 ounce) packages of fat free cheese
3 Eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 already made graham cracker pie crust in a foil pie tin

Steps:

  • Allow Cream Cheese to get to room temperature. Open cream cheese and place in large bowl. Add Sugar and mix until sugar and cream cheese are well blended. Add the 3 eggs blending after adding each one.
  • Add 2 cups of water into the bottom of your crockpot. Next put your foil tin and graham cracker crust right on top of the water. - Don't let the water get in your crust. - I also had to bend my tin a bit in order to fit in the the crock pot.
  • Add the cream cheese mixture to the top of the graham cracker premade crust.
  • Place the lid of the crock-pot on and cook on high for 2 hours to 2 hours and 30 minutes or until the center does not have a watery consistency when you stick a knife into it.
  • The cheesecake will begin to crack on the sides.
  • Remove and let set in the refrigerator for a few hours or until ready to serve.
  • If your crockpot is too small for a pie tin you can also get a oven safe bowl and do the same thing.
  • You will need...
  • 6 Graham Crackers (full pieces), pulverized into crumbs
  • 3 Tablespoons of Stick Butter, melted
  • In a separate bowl, add graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix well as this will form your crust.
  • Choose a pan or small crock type cooking pan that will fit in the bottom of your crock pot with room left on the side. You want to be able to pull the pan out without too much difficulty.
  • Add the graham cracker crumbs mixture to the bottom of the pan. With a spoon, pat the graham crackers out til you have a smooth layer.
  • Add the cream cheese mixture to the top of the graham crackers.
  • Add 2 to 3 cups water to the bottom of the crock-pot. You need enough to last 2 hours but not too much that it will get in your pan.
  • Place the cheesecake pan in the crock-pot and place the lid of the crock-pot on.
  • Cook on high for 2 - 2 1/2 hours or until the center does not have a watery consistency when you stick a knife into it.
  • The cheesecake will begin to crack on the sides.
  • Let cool for 30m to 1h. Remove and let set in the refrigerator for a few hours or until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use a slow cooker with a removable crock. This will make it easier to remove the cheesecake when it is done cooking.
  • Line the crock with parchment paper before adding the cheesecake batter. This will help prevent the cheesecake from sticking to the crock.
  • Be sure to use full-fat cream cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • Do not overbeat the cheesecake batter. Overbeating will make the cheesecake tough.
  • Bake the cheesecake on low for 6-8 hours, or until the center is set.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before refrigerating. This will help prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Serve the cheesecake with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce.
