Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Yield Makes 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

Vegetable oil, cooking spray
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
10 ounces (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Line dish with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on both long sides, then spray parchment.
  • Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Cream butter and granulated sugar with a mixer until smooth. Add 2 eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla, and beat until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl. Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture. Increase speed to medium; beat until incorporated.
  • Reserve 1 cup of dough; cover, and refrigerate. Press remaining dough into bottom of prepared dish. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Bake until base is set and edges are puffed, about 25 minutes. Let cool in dish on a wire rack.
  • Mix cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and remaining egg and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla in a medium bowl. Spread over cooled base; crumble reserved dough on top. Bake until filling is set, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in dish on wire rack, then lift out using overhang. Cut into 24 squares.

Tips:

  • For a smoother cheesecake filling, make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the edges of the graham cracker crust so that it fits snugly in the bottom of the pie plate.
  • To make the white chocolate ganache, be sure to use high-quality white chocolate. This will give the ganache a rich, creamy flavor.
  • If you don't have key lime juice, you can use regular lime juice. Just be sure to add a little extra sugar to the filling, as key lime juice is sweeter than regular lime juice.
  • These cheesecake squares can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months. To freeze, wrap the cheesecake squares tightly in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag.

Conclusion:

These white chocolate key lime cheesecake squares are the perfect dessert for any occasion. They're easy to make, absolutely delicious, and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these cheesecake squares a try. You won't be disappointed.
