Love this recipe- thank you! Do you have any advice for the cooking time if I were to bake 2 of them at the same time? Thanks

Made this for my son's birthday.  Although a bit timeconsuming, it was such fun to make and the finished product is fabulous!  Looks and tastes so amazing.  The only modification I would make would be to cut the cinnamon in half, just a little too much in this recipe for my taste.  I can't wait to make this again!

Made this cheesecake for Christmas and it was AMAZING I ended up using empty cannoli shells that I put in the food processor until they resembled graham cracker crumbs in place of the graham cracker crumbs but did everything else as written and it was a huge hit. Great texture, lighter than the average cheesecake. I will definitely be making this one again! Thank you for the great recipe! 

I made this this weekend and and it was off the chain amazing!   High praise from everyone!  I did half the cinnamon, but other than that, followed each step strictly...IT WAS AWESOME!  thank you!

I have to say, I’ve never made a real cheesecake in my life and I made this one last Friday and your lemon one for my birthday at the end of April. I was so nervous. I didn’t want it coming out too dry but your instructions are so perfect! I love cooking and experimenting with food but honestly anyone can make these with your directions. I had non-cheesecake fans LOVE the lemon cheesecake and my hubs said the cannoli cheesecake tasted just like his favorite cannoli from Little Italy in NYC. Thank you for for the detail to make even a novice cheesecake baker taste like a pro! 

Lindsay,

This was amazing!!  I really enjoyed making this cheesecake.  This was my first time making a cheesecake and I LOVE cannolis so I wanted to give it a try!   My partner doesn’t like cheesecake but he took a slice to work the next day!  I bookmarked and saved this recipe for next time.  

(I used waffle cones crumble for around the top.  I’m such a texture person.)

I have been looking through your website for other tasty treats!  I can’t wait to make another one. 

This no bake mascarpone cheesecake is the easiest cheesecake you’ll ever make! With a press-in biscotti crust and an almond-scented filling, it’s the perfect dessert for any occasion or holiday. The frozen filling has an ice cream-like texture that slowly softens as you eat it, turning ultra creamy. Take note that this cake needs to freeze for an hour before adding the cherry jam topping, then for another 3 hours to set. However, you can make it completely the day (or several days!) before. Take the mascarpone out of the refrigerator an hour or two before making the cake to come to room temperature, or follow the instructions in the notes below for softening it quickly.

No Bake Mascarpone Cheesecake

almond biscotti (regular

butter, melted

mascarpone cheese,

(1 pint) heavy cream

vanilla extract vanilla paste

almond extract

salt

cherry jam

cherries

Place the biscotti in a food processor or Vitamix and process until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is the texture of damp sand. Scrape the crumbs into a 9-inch springform pan and press them into a compact, even layer over the bottom. Freeze the crust while you make the filling.

Make and freeze the crust

In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone and 1/4 cup of the sugar using hand beaters until fully incorporated.

In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, vanilla extract, almond extract and a pinch of salt. Using the same hand beaters (no need to wash them!), beat the mixture to soft peaks (the cream should look billowy and creamy but should hold a soft point - see the video above).

Scrape about one-third of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture and beat just until just combined (you don’t want to overwork the mixture). Add another third of the mascarpone and use a rubber spatula to fold the whipped cream into the lightened mascarpone. Add the rest of the whipped cream and fold just until evenly combined (don’t overwork the mixture, otherwise it could turn grainy).

Scrape the filling over the cold crust and spread it in an even layer. Cover the pan and freeze for 1 hour (or up to overnight).

Warm the jam on the stovetop or in the microwave until runny. Let cool slightly. Pour the jam over the top of the cake and spread it in a thin layer. If the cake had only been frozen for 1 hour, freeze it again for at least 3 hours. If the cake was frozen overnight, freeze it again until the jam sets, about 30 minutes.

To serve, remove the cake from the springform ring (if needed, run a thin knife or offset spatula around the edges to loosen). Run a large off-set spatula (or thin knife) under the crust to loosen it from the base, and transfer the cake to a platter or cake stand (or you can serve it right on the springform base!). If the cake was in the freezer overnight, let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly. Cut the cake into wedges and serve.

This Tiramisu Cheesecake is a super easy no-bake recipe and tastes just like tiramisu cake! The combination of espresso, Kahlua and mascarpone cheese is to die for!

Tiramisu Cheesecake

(167 grams) vanilla wafer crumbs

(56 grams) salted butter, melted

tbsp (20 grams) sugar

oz (226 grams) cream cheese, room temperature

oz (452) mascarpone cheese, room temperature

(52 grams) sugar

(240 milliliters) heavy whipping cream, cold

(58 grams) powdered sugar

tbsp (45 milliliters) warm water

tbsp (30 milliliters) instant espresso powder

(240 milliliters) Kahlua

ladyfingers

(60 milliliters) Kahlua mixture (remaining from above), cold

tbsp (73 grams) powdered sugar

Cocoa, optional

. Mix together the crust ingredients until well combined and press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan.

. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
FILLING

p id=&#8221;instruction-step-5&#8243;>1. To make the filling, mix the cream cheese, mascarpone cheese and sugar together on medium-low speed until combined. Do not mix on high speed or overmix or the mascarpone cheese can begin to separate. Set aside.

. In another mixing bowl, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.

. Slowly fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese mixture. Set aside.

. Combine the warm water and espresso powder for the Kahlua mixture in a small bowl. Add the Kahlua and stir to combine.

. Dip the ladyfingers into the Kahlua mixture one at a time, then add to the springform pan, on top of the crust.

. Spread the mascarpone cheese mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.

. Set the cheesecake in the refrigerator to chill and firm, 5-6 hours or overnight. Set remaining Kahlua mixture in the fridge for later.

. When the cheesecake is firm, make the Kahlua whipped cream. Add the heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup of the remaining Kahlua mixture and powdered sugar to a large mixer bowl. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.

. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and use an offset spatula to smooth the sides, if needed.

0. Add the Kahlua whipped cream to the top of the cheesecake. You can simply spread it on top or pipe it in a similar pattern as I did. I used the Ateco 844 tip.

1. Sprinkle a little cocoa over the top of the cheesecake, if desired.

2. Refrigerate the cheesecake until ready to serve.

I made this for a friend of a friend’s birthday 2 weeks ago. I made homemade lady fingers.  She said it was “the best dessert I’ve ever eaten!”

A simple no bake cheesecake with a mascarpone filling and graham cracker crust.

No Bake Cheesecake with Mascarpone

graham cracker crumbs (or digestive biscuits)

unsalted butter (melted)

heavy cream (cold)

oz mascarpone (room temperature)

confectioners' sugar (sifted)

lemon juice

lemon

In a large mixing bowl, whisk your crushed graham cracker crumbs with your melted butter. Make sure all the crumbs are moist and there aren&#39;t any dry patches.

Pour the crumbs into a 9&quot; spring form pan. Use a rubber spatula or the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crumbs down into an even layer, you should have the crumbs going up slightly at the sides of the pan. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.

Crust

In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment or using a hand held electric mixer, whisk the cold heavy cream for about 5 minutes until you have stiff peaks. Set aside.

In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the mascarpone on medium speed until completely smooth - you don&#39;t want any lumps at all.

Add in your sifted confectioners&#39; sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest and lemon juice.  Beat on medium-high until incorporated and smooth.

Use a rubber spatula to gently fold in your whipped cream, being careful to not deflate the cream.

Pour the filling into your chilled crust. Use a small offset spatula to smooth out the top. Cover in plastic wrap and keep in the fridge overnight. 12 hours is best. Take out of the fridge and remove the sides of the springform pan. Cover the top with fresh berries!

Cheesecake filling

Hi, made this as it’s too hot to bake.
Was delicious &amp; super easy &amp; quick to make.
Put fiora di sicilie essence in by mistake instead of vanilla &amp; everyone loved it (citrus flavor).

This ultra-creamy vanilla bean cheesecake is rich, silky, and packed with real vanilla bean flavor. Made with a touch of mascarpone and baked in a water bath, it’s smooth, elegant, and perfect for any celebration, no topping needed.

Vanilla Bean Cheesecake Recipe - Creamy, Rich &amp; Easy to Make

graham

brown sugar

tbsp (85 grams) salted butter (melted)

oz (3 blocks) full-fat cream cheese (room temp)

oz mascarpone cheese (room temp)

(265 grams) granulated white sugar

eggs (room temp)

(160 grams) full-fat sour cream (room temp)

(160) heavy cream (room temp)

vanilla bean paste ((vanilla extract works too))

tsp salt

Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your 10-inch springform pan by wrapping the outside in heavy-duty foil (I recommend wrapping it three times and crimping the foil around the top edge to prevent water from seeping in).If you&#39;re not using a springform pan, no problem, just grab a regular cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until it resembles wet sand.

Press

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool while you make the filling.Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).

Make the Crust:

Beat

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and mascarpone together until smooth and fluffy, about 4 minutes.

Add the sugar, salt, and vanilla bean paste, then beat again for 2–3 minutes until fully incorporated and silky.

Combine

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing at this stage to prevent air bubbles and cracking.

Stir

Mix in the sour cream until smooth, then add the heavy cream and stir until the batter is completely velvety and lump-free. Scrape down the bowl as needed.

Make the Cheesecake Filling:

Place

Place your foil-wrapped springform pan in the center of a large roasting pan. Carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan until it reaches about 1 to 2 inches up the sides of the springform pan. This water bath helps the cheesecake bake evenly and prevents cracks.

Pour

Pour the cheesecake batter into the crust. Smooth the top if needed.

Bake

Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly when you gently shake the pan. It should look like soft-set Jell-O—not runny.

Cool

Once done, turn off the oven, crack the oven door open, and let the cheesecake sit inside for 1 hour to cool gradually. This step also helps prevent cracks.

Chill

Once your cheesecake has cooled in the oven, cover the pan with foil or plastic wrap (still in the pan) and refrigerate. Let it chill for at least 6–8 hours, but overnight is ideal for the perfect texture.This step is crucial; cheesecake needs time to fully set and develop that ultra-creamy consistency. Trust me, it’s worth the wait!

When you’re ready to serve, gently release the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer it to a serving plate. For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between cuts.If you used a regular cake pan instead, carefully run a thin offset spatula or butter knife around the edges to loosen the cheesecake. Then gently lift it out using the parchment paper you placed on the bottom. You can also flip it out onto a flat plate, then flip it again right-side up onto your serving platter (like you would a layered cake). Go slow, it’s delicate but doable! If you have a torch, gently warm the edges of the pan for an easy release.This cheesecake is rich, smooth, and full of flavor, no topping required, but a dollop of whipped cream or a handful of fresh berries never hurts.

Bake the Cheesecake:

I have tried several cheesecake recipes and this one was by far the best.  My son, who is a cheesecake snob asked for it for his next birthday cake!  I enjoy watching you bake, you’re so entertaining!!

OMG the flavor is amazing. The vanilla bean paste is a game-changer for sure. No cracks! It taste delish! And it's easy to make with the instructions and video! It's literally fool-proof if you follow the directions to a "T". Make sure your pan is the correct size.

I made this with my 6 year old son, who loves all your videos, and it was a success. I had to do minor tweaks since I'm in Mexico: have to use a gas stove, metric system, and only have one rack in my oven but it all came out great! Thank for an amazing cheescake recipie!

This is the best cheesecake! I was pretty distraught after trying a recipe I found online, but my phone algorithm did its thing and sent me to Everything Just Baked. This cheesecake is perfect and I will be holding on to this recipe like it’s gold!

My cheesecake just came out of the oven and NO CRACKS!! Yay!!  It was simple to make following your great instructions. Love your vanilla bean paste recipe!  I made this for Thanksgiving dessert tomorrow.  Can't wait to taste it!!  Thank you Justin! And Happy Thanksgiving!

ps.  Love your videos!

Tastes and looks exactly how it was shown

I lined my spring form pan with aluminum foil and water still got in the crust. Help!

Sometimes you can just look at a recipe and know it’s going to be good. Made this last night and it was excellent!!! 10/10 My whole family loved it!

I baked this cheesecake today and it scared me OMG! It was all my fault, I used all the batter a 9 inch springform pan instead of 10. After 90 minutes of baking, it rose up an inch out of the pan. It looked like a soufflé! It shrunk back down while cooling and I’m still waiting on it to set.  But it already gets 5/5 stars just for the drama!
