Time 2h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (6 ounce) containers vanilla yogurt
1 cup crushed gingersnap cookies
½ cup crushed amaretti cookies
3 tablespoons butter, melted
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
⅛ teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1 (8 ounce) jar caramel sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place yogurt in a strainer lined with a coffee filter and set over a bowl. Refrigerate for at least 40 minutes to allow liquid to drain. Discard liquid and set yogurt aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine gingersnap cookies, amaretti cookies, and butter in a bowl; mix well. Press crust into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 12 minutes.
  • Remove crust from oven and reduce temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Let crust cool completely.
  • While crust cools, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and salt together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating on low speed and scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Stir in yogurt. Pour filling into the cooled crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set on sides but slightly shimmers in center, about 50 minutes.
  • Let cool completely and remove from pan. Serve with caramel sauce.

This cheesecake is a great way to end a meal. It's not too heavy, and the chai flavor is a nice touch.

I'm not a fan of chai, but I still enjoyed this cheesecake. The filling is light and fluffy, and the crust is perfectly crispy.

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.

I'm not usually a fan of cheesecake, but this one changed my mind. The chai flavor is subtle but noticeable, and the cheesecake itself is light and fluffy.
