Yield Makes12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter (do not use old-fashioned style or freshly ground)
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup sour cream
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 11-ounce package peanut butter chips
1 tablespoon apricot jam, warmed
1 1/2 cups chopped Peanut Brittle

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides with nonstick spray. Line bottom with parchment. Double-wrap outside of pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, peanut butter, and sugar in large bowl until well blended and fluffy. Beat in sour cream. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, then vanilla. Stir in peanut butter chips. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
  • Place springform pan in large roasting pan. Fill roasting pan with enough hot water to come 1 inch up sides of springform pan. Bake cake until slightly firm to touch and top appears dry, about 1 hour.
  • Refrigerate cake uncovered until cold, at least 4 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead; cover and keep refrigerated.)
  • Cut around pan sides to loosen cheesecake; release sides. Invert cake onto platter; peel off parchment. Brush apricot jam over top of cake. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups peanut brittle pieces over cake and serve.

This cheesecake is a waste of time. It's not worth the effort to make. I would not recommend it.

This cheesecake is just okay. It's not as creamy or rich as I would have liked. I wouldn't make it again.

The cheesecake was a bit dry, but the peanut butter and peanut brittle flavors were still good. I would recommend using a different recipe next time.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

This cheesecake is delicious! The peanut butter and peanut brittle flavors are perfectly balanced. The crust is also very good. I will definitely be making this again.

This cheesecake is so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I love that I can use store-bought peanut butter cups to make the peanut butter filling. It's a great recipe for busy weeknights.

I made this cheesecake for a party and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it, even people who don't usually like cheesecake. The peanut butter and peanut brittle add a delicious twist to the classic cheesecake recipe.

This peanut butter cheesecake with peanut brittle is a match made in heaven! The creamy, rich cheesecake filling is perfectly complemented by the crunchy, sweet peanut brittle. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. My family love
