The perfect evening with coffee and cappuccino cheesecake :)
Ingredients:
For cake
16oz Fat free Cream cheese
16 oz Sour cream light
5 eggs
1-1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup Flour
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp lemon juice
6-8 Tbs coffee
5-6 Tbs melted chocolate
1/8 -1/4 cup milk
For base:
2 1/2 cups of finely crushed honey flavored Graham Cracker
1/4 cup of crushed Almonds
1 tsp coffee powder
2 tsp melted butter
1/8 -1/4 cup of milk
Recipe:
Preheat oven to 325 F
1) Mix all the base material , namely graham cracker , almonds ,butter together and keep adding milk till it becomes slightly moist . Oil the 10 inch spring pan and press the crust mixture on the pan. Try to line on the sides as much as possible.
2) Then sprinkle the coffee powder on the base material using strainer, to avoid coffee chunks.
3) Keep inside the oven for 5 - 7 mins
4) Remove from the oven and keep aside
Cheesecake:
All the above ingredients should be at the room temperature.
1) Start by beating cream cheese on low setting , until it becomes light and fluffy
2) Add the sugar and continue beating
3) Now add one egg at a time and keep beating the mixture until it becomes fluffy
4) When eggs are mixed well with cream cheese add Flour , vanilla extract , and lemon juice
5) Add sour cream last and beat well.
For the Flavor:
1) In a different container, heat the 1/8 cup of milk and add chocolate chunks to it till you get the dark color and rich flavor of chocolate.
2) Add 6-8 Tbs of coffee , and keep stirring, till you get the smooth brown color mixture , you can add more coffee if you like little more intense flavor of coffee in a cake.
Now add this mixture to our cheesecake mixture and beat for 1 min.
Pour the cream cheese mixture in the spring pan (which is lined by graham cracker crust) and keep inside the oven for 1 hour and 7 mins at 325 F
When the time is up , just switch off the oven and leave the oven door open for 1 hour. After that remove the cake and let it cool completely to room temperature till you refrigerate it for 24 hrs.
The wait is worth for the delicious mouth watering cheesecake with your coffee :)
