Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe 445

MIXED BERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the crust, combine the graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter until moistened. Pour into a 9-inch springform pan. With your hands, press the crumbs into the bottom of the pan and about 1-inch up the sides. Bake for 8 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
• Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• To make the filling, cream the cream cheese and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce the speed of the mixer to medium and add the eggs and egg yolks, 2 at a time, mixing well. Scrape down the bowl and beater, as necessary. With the mixer on low, add the sour cream, lemon zest, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly and pour into the cooled crust.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Turn the oven temperature down to 225 degrees and bake for another 1 hour and 15 minutes. Turn the oven off and open the door wide. The cake will not be completely set in the center. Allow the cake to sit in the oven with the door open for 30 minutes. Take the cake out of the oven and allow it to sit at room temperature for another 2 to 3 hours, until completely cooled. Wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove the cake from the springform pan by carefully running a hot knife around the outside of the cake. Leave the cake on the bottom of the springform pan for serving.
• To make the topping, melt the jelly in a small pan over low heat. In a bowl, toss berries and the warm jelly gently until well mixed. Arrange the berries on top of the cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

TRIPLE BERRY CHEESECAKE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Instructions 1 Berry sauce: combine berries, sugar and orange juice in small saucepan cook over med/high heat until the berries break down and thicken. Puree in a blender and strain. Refrigerate until ready to use. 2 Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter in the bottom of a 9 in spring form pan. Gently press the crumb mixture up the sides of the pan and over the bottom of the pan to form a crust. Refrigerate until ready to use. 3 Filling: Pre-heat oven to 375. Mix softened cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla with a mixer until smooth. Gently pour filling into the graham cracker crust. Drizzle half of the berry sauce over top and gently swirl in with a knife being careful not to ruin the crust. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven. Let sit for 15 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 475. 4 Sour Cream Topping: Mix sour cream, sugar and vanilla. After the baked cheesecake has sat out of the oven for 15 minutes gently top with the sour cream topping and bake additional 10 minutes at 475. 5 Let cool, refrigerate overnight. Just before you are ready to serve, toss the additional fresh berries in the remaining berry sauce. Gently top the cheesecake with the berry mixture. Enjoy! Notes It's very important to let the cheesecake sit for 15 minutes before putting the sour cream topping on - if you don't the topping will sink right to the bottom.

TRIPLE-LAYERED BERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Butter and line the base and sides of a 20cm springform tin. Blitz the digestives in a food processor until you get fine crumbs, or bash in a sandwich bag with a rolling pin. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the melted butter until it looks like damp sand. Tip into the prepared tin, and smooth the mixture with the back of a spoon to make an even base, then chill.
• Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water. Put the raspberries in a food processor or in a jug using a stick blender, and blitz to a smooth purée. Sieve out the seeds. Warm the raspberry sauce in a small pan with 1 tbsp sugar until just starting to steam, then pour over 1 drained gelatine leaf in a bowl and stir to dissolve.
• Blitz 3 (about 65g) of the strawberries in a food processor, and warm through with 1 tbsp sugar in the same way. Tip into a bowl and stir in the other drained gelatine leaf.
• Whisk the soft cheese, cream and caster sugar until it just starts to thicken. Divide between three bowls (about 260g per bowl). Fold the strawberry purée into one with a few drops of food colouring to make it light pink, the raspberry mix with the gelatine into another with more food colouring so it's dark pink, and the vanilla bean paste into the third.
• Spoon the raspberry filling over the biscuit base, smoothing the surface so it's flat. Next, add the strawberry filling, gently smoothing over without disturbing the bottom layer, then repeat with the vanilla mixture, using a clean spoon to level the top. A spatula or knife might help with this to keep from dragging the below layers. Chill for 4 hrs or overnight.
• Run a knife around the sides of the cake tin between the cheesecake and the parchment, and loosen the base. Transfer to a cake stand, and smooth the sides, using a palette knife, to neaten the layers. Mix the chocolate with a few drops of lemon extract, if using. Pile the remaining strawberries, some sliced, some whole, on top, and drizzle over the chocolate to finish.
