Pb J Cheesecake Recipe By Tasty

NO-BAKE PB&J SANDWICH CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For the crust: Spray the inside of a 9-inch springform pan that is at least 2 1/2 inches tall evenly with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put half of the cookies and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt into a food processor and process until the cookies are broken down to fine crumbs. Add 3 tablespoons of the melted butter and pulse until just combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.
• Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan, then freeze while you make the cheesecake mixture.
• For the peanut butter cheesecake: Combine the gelatin with 2 tablespoons water in a small microwave-safe bowl and set aside to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter powder, sour cream, lemon juice, vanilla and salt and beat on medium-high speed until incorporated and smooth, about 1 minute.
• Microwave the gelatin, stirring as needed, until melted, about 30 seconds. Add the gelatin to the cream cheese mixture and beat on medium-high speed to combine, about 30 seconds. Pour the cream cheese-gelatin mixture into the springform pan and smooth out the top. Tap the pan a few times on a flat tabletop to release any air bubbles in the cheesecake. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the strawberry jelly.
• For the strawberry jelly: Pour 1 1/2 cups water a medium saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over top. Let sit until the gelatin is absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the strawberry jelly and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, whisking occasionally, just until the gelatin and jelly dissolve, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle in the strawberry gelatin powder top whisk until dissolved.
• Pour the gelatin mixture into a large bowl and use a spoon to scoop away any bubbles on the surface. Refrigerate, stirring every 10 minutes, until the gelatin just begins to thicken and is the consistency of thin fruit jelly, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Pour the thickened gelatin mixture over the cheesecake. Refrigerate until the gelatin is almost completely set, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining 8 ounces cookies and 1/4 teaspoon salt into a food processor and process until the cookies are broken down to fine crumbs. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons melted butter and pulse until just combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.
• Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top of the gelatin and gently press it into a smooth layer. Refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

PB & J CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Make the crust: Grease a 7-inch (17 cm) springform pan with nonstick spray and line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
• Add the graham crackers to a food processor and process until broken down into coarse crumbs.
• Add the peanuts and brown sugar to the food processor with the graham cracker crumbs and grind into fine crumbs.
• Add the melted butter and peanut butter to the food processor and pulse until well combined, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the crust mixture to the prepared springform pan and, using your hands, press the crust in an even layer against the bottom and about 1 inch (2.54 cm) up the sides of the pan.
• Wrap the bottom of the springform pan with 2 layers of foil, going about halfway up the sides. This will prevent water from leaking into the pan when placed in the water bath.
• Make the filling: Add the cream cheese to a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, about 3 minutes.
• Add the sugar and beat for another 3-5 minutes, until the sugar has completely dissolved. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Add the sour cream and beat to incorporate. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating between each addition. When the eggs are well incorporated, beat in the vanilla and lemon juice. Fold in the freeze-dried strawberries.
• Pour the filling into the crust.
• Place the springform pan in an 11-inch (27 cm) round pan or roasting pan. Fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform, being careful not to splash any onto the cheesecake. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes. The center of the cheesecake should still jiggle slightly when you shake the pan.
• Turn off the oven, leaving the cheesecake inside for 1 hour to cool.
• Carefully remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let cool at room temperature for another hour, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
• Make the candied peanuts: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large, nonstick skillet, combine the water, sugar, and peanuts. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning, until the sugar has caramelized and browned and the nuts are evenly coated, 10-15 minutes.
• Spread the candied peanuts on the prepared baking sheet. Let cool until safe to handle, then break apart with your hands into bite-size pieces.
• Once the cheesecake has chilled, use a knife or offset spatula to loosen the cheesecake from the rim of the pan, then release the springform. Transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter.
• Using an offset spatula, spread the melted strawberry preserves over the top of the cheesecake. Top with the fresh strawberries and candied peanuts.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

TOFFEE CHIP COOKIE BOTTOM CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Wrap the outer bottom of a 7-inch (18 cm) springform pan with 2 layers of foil, going at least halfway up the sides. This will prevent water from leaking into the pan when placed in the water bath. Then, line the inside bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
• Press half of the cookie dough evenly against the bottom and about ⅓ of the way up the sides of the pan. Pour in the cheesecake batter.
• Place the springform pan in an 11-inch (27-cm) round pan or roasting pan. Fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform, being careful not to splash any onto the cheesecake. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes. The center of the cheesecake should still jiggle slightly when you shake the pan.
• Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour to cool. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let cool at room temperature for another hour, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a #30 (1-ounce) scoop, scoop the remaining cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. You should get about 18 cookies. (Alternatively, wrap the remaining dough in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.)

Let cool on the baking sheets for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut 2-3 of the cookies in half, then crush 2-3 more for topping the cheesecake. Reserve the remaining cookies for another use.
• Make the toffee sauce: In a medium pot, combine the brown sugar, cream, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, until starting to thicken. Add the vanilla and flaky salt and cook for another minute, until the salt dissolves.
• Pour the sauce into a heatproof jar, cover, and let cool at room temperature. The sauce will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
• Once the cheesecake has chilled, use a knife or offset spatula to loosen the cheesecake around the sides of the pan, then release the springform. Transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter.
• Top the cheesecake with the toffee sauce, halved cookies, crushed cookies, and mini chocolate chips.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
