White Chocolate Cheesecake
Ingredients
- 4 oz white chocolate chopped
- 16 oz cream cheese
- 3/4 c sugar
- 1 tbsp. flour
- 2 eggs at room temperature
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tbsp. heavy cream
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9-in springform pan and set aside.
- Using a double broiler or in 30-second increments in the microwave, melt the white chocolate.
- In mixer, combine cream cheese and sugar until light and smooth.
- Add in flour, salt, and vanilla.
- One at a time, add in the room temperature eggs.
- Add in the heavy cream and beat on medium until creamy.
- Remove mixer bowl from stand and pour in the melted white chocolate. Fold in by hand.
- Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake for about 30 minutes, or until center is set. Remove from oven.
- Allow cheesecake to cool completely before removing from pan. I placed my cheesecake in the fridge until I was ready to assemble the cake.
- You can use whatever crust you prefer for cheesecake, I used a premade Oreo crust I purchased at the store. I simply pressed the crust into the bottom of the pan and poured the cheesecake mixture over the top
Did you make this recipe?
Thank you for making my recipe! You took pictures, right? Well go ahead and post them on Instagram! Be sure to mention me @iambaker and use the hashtag #YouAreBaker.
I am completely incapable of honoring any diet resolution, so instead sharing with you one of the most ridiculous, over the top, insane cakes I have ever thought up much less made.
I wasn’t planning on sharing it because its so crazy. Its got roughly 3,456 calories per slice. In addition to the obnoxious sweetness, it was the most expensive cake I have ever made for fun, rolling in at roughly $30. For a cake. For one cake. One little cake.
But, based on some blogging stories of late, I am going to share it anyway. My blogging motto for 2013 is “Be Me”.
And more times than not *I* am totally ridiculous and over the top and obnoxious.
*shame spiral*
Lets still be friends. I promise to behave in public. Most of the time.
I used Ree’s Milky Way Cake recipe and prepared it in a 9-inch cake pan. There was a little batter left over so I threw that in another 9-inch pan and had a little snack. (If you choose to do the same, just keep an eye on it during baking, as it will cook faster with less batter.) That was the top layer.
I also used her Milky Way frosting to cover the cake, although my cake was very chilled when I added it.
The bottom layer is a deeply rich Chocolate Cake. In place of one of the cups of hot water, I used 1 cup of fresh brewed coffee. That was the bottom layer and the White Chocolate Cheesecake with Oreo Crust is in the middle.
I also covered the cake in a buttercream crumb coat before chilling it overnight. The link goes to my Neapolitan Rose Cake, which is covered in 47 pounds the most wonderfully luscious and satisfying basic buttercream.
See, look at that. I cant stop.
Must. Remember. To. Be. Healthier.
Well, maybe next year.
I love you for this over the top and completely incredible cake. Who cares about diet resolutions, right? 😉
lol Well, I certainly wish *I* did more! My waistline could use a good diet. 😉 Be blessed today my friend!
This looks scrumptious, Amanda! I hope your family had a wonderful Christmas and a great new year! xoxo
Oh my goodness! Seriously! This looks incredible! 🙂
Oh my!! Yes Please! I’ll indulge with you! This is divine!
Thanks for giving me a good laugh! All those gorgeous layers can’t be wrong…I hope you have a good crowd to share this one with!
Happy New Year!
Oh, wow, Milky Way and cheesecake! This may be the death of me!!!
This is a totally normal cake! What’s the fuss about!?! NOW……if you had poured ganache over the top……well!……THEN it would be completely insane! Hmmmmmm! LOL
Note to self………Must. Try. This. Cake!!!!
Thanks a bunch!
Ha! I like the way you think! 🙂
I kept scrolling until I found the dissected cake picture so that I could see all the hidden layers and have a little ogle 😉
I don’t make diet resolutions. I will stop eating anything if I have an intolerance, but I firmly believe that everything else in moderation is good for one’s overall wellbeing.
Enjoy your cake! This one looks so sweet it has to be shared. I don’t think I could eat it all by myself even if I tried 😉
Happy happy sweet new year x
Oh my. Good thing I’m not standing in your kitchen because this cake would be surrounded by, you know, MY MOUTH. I just love all of the flavors going on in this luscious confection. What a way to start out 2013!
Healthy diet is something that must be practiced on a daily basis, and not just a first of the year resolution. That being said, I’ll start eatting better *after* a slice of cake.
Every day’s better with cake.
Bring on the recipes!
