RECIPE
Sauce
250g - 1 3/4 cups cherries, halved, pitted
2 tbs granulated sugar
Base
380g (33 cookies) Oreo Chocolate biscuits, crushed
1/3 cup brown sugar
125g - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake
750g (3 blocks) cream cheese, softened
105g - 1/2 cup caster sugar
60g - 1/4 cup sour cream
2 tbsp powdered sugar
105g - 1/2 cup milk powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
300ml - 1 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
Extra cherries to serve
Instructions:
Sauce
Add the pitted cherries and sugar into the pan of a large saucepan and mix to combine. Place on a medium heat and cook until the mixture boils. About 2 minutes. Increase to high heat. Stir for 5 minutes and then take off the heat to cool to room temperature before adding to a blender to mix until smooth.
Base
Grease the sides of a 20cm springform pan and line with baking paper.
Add the Oreos and brown sugar to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until you reach fine crumbs. Add the butter and pulse to coat the crumbs. Pour the mixture into the springform pan and use the back of a spoon or flat based/straight sided cup to firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and sides of the cake pan. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Cheesecake
Add the cream cheese into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Alternatively, you can use a hand mixer for this. Mix until fluffy and smooth, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the bowl, swap the paddle attachment for the balloon whisk attachment and add the sugar. Mix for another couple minutes. Add the sour cream, powdered sugar, milk powder, sour cream and vanilla extract and mix until everything is well combined and fluffy.
Add the heavy cream to a clean bowl and use a balloon whisk (or regular beaters is using a hand mixer) to whip to stiff peaks. Add the cream to the cheese mixture and gently fold through until fluffy and well combined.
Add half the mixture into the chilled cake pan and use a spatula to spread around. Drizzle with some cherry sauce and swirl with a skewer. Add the rest of the cheesecake mixture and then drizzle some more cherry sauce, about 2 tsp (reserve the remainder to serve alongside the cheesecake). Swirl and place in the fridge for 6-8 hours. Overnight is best.
Notes
Cheesecake can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
Don’t be tempted to place the cheesecake in the freezer to set up as it will freeze and then melt as it defrosts losing it’s fluffy sliceable consistency.
