Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups crushed gingersnap cookies (about 30 cookies; 8 oz)
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
4 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla
4 eggs
1 can (15.25 oz) peach slices in heavy syrup, drained, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup peach preserves
1 tablespoon finely chopped gingerroot
2 teaspoons lemon juice

I accidentally used too much ginger and the cheesecake was a bit too spicy for my taste.

I had some trouble finding fresh peaches, so I used canned peaches instead. The cheesecake still turned out great.

This cheesecake is very rich, so a little goes a long way. I would recommend serving it with fresh fruit or whipped cream.
