Cheesecake Recipes

A from-scratch cheesecake with a buttery lemon shortbread crust, rich cream cheese filling, and homemade tart cherry sauce. This is the cheesecake you make when you mean business.

Just one bite, you will totally be charmed by this super chocolaty, creamy and silky cheesecake!

I made this with the shortbread crust recipe and it was fabulous! Will make again many times... everyone loved it!

The name says it all. I got this from Sandra Lee at Food Network. I am adding it to my recipe box because I'm a sucker for ANYTHING cheesecake.

Velvety cheesecake infused with espresso and orange zest on a toasted nut crust, topped with cinnamon sugar and piped whipped cream rosettes.

No-bake peppermint cheesecake with crushed candy canes, milk chocolate chunks, and whipped cream on a chocolate wafer crust. Set with gelatin, no oven needed for the filling.

Creamy vanilla cheesecake on a cookie crumb crust, drizzled with melted caramel and German chocolate toppings, then showered with toasted pecans. Every slice is a candy-counter dream come true.

Love this lower-fat cheesecake. It well satisfied my cheesecake cravings but without giving me too much guilt afterwards. LOL.

No-bake pineapple cheesecake: a lightened version using nonfat cream cheese, cottage cheese, and Greek yogurt folded with crushed pineapple, set with gelatin on a graham and Grape-Nuts crust. Creamy tropical dessert without the oven.

Amaretto chocolate chip cheesecake with a fudgy wafer crust, amaretto cream cheese filling studded with chocolate chips, and an almond-topped sour cream finish. The grown-up dessert centerpiece.

Caramel apple cheesecake bars stacked four layers deep: a brown sugar shortbread crust, creamy cheesecake, spiced cinnamon-nutmeg apples, and an oat streusel, all finished with a caramel drizzle. Fall in a pan.

Tropical mango-pineapple-lime cheesecake on a gingersnap and macadamia nut crust with crystallized ginger, topped with fresh mango, kiwi, and pineapple slices.

Paskha: the traditional Russian Easter cheesecake, an unbaked pyramid of sweetened farmer's cheese studded with candied fruit, raisins, and almonds, served with a madeira-rum lemon sauce. Orthodox Easter in every bite.

Vegan no-bake pumpkin cheesecake with silken tofu, almond butter, maple syrup, and agar for setting. Dairy-free, egg-free, and set overnight in the fridge.

Maple pumpkin cheesecake on a graham cracker crust, topped with a maple pecan glaze. Creamy, warmly spiced, and rich with real maple syrup, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Decadent amaretto chocolate cheesecake with an amaretti cookie crust, dark chocolate-almond filling spiked with liqueur, and crunchy amaretti folded into the batter. Italian-inspired showstopper.
