Gluten-Free Bailey's Cheesecake image

This was modified from a 'regular' cheesecake recipe using a traditional graham cracker crust. Apparently there is some debate as to whether Bailey's is truly gluten-free, but my coworker who has a wheat allergy ate this with no problems. The filling could also be used with a normal graham cracker crust.

Time 1h40m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups gluten-free animal crackers, crushed into crumbs
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon brown sugar
32 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup Baileys Irish Cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease bottom and sides of a 10-inch springform pan.
  • Combine cookie crumbs, butter, and brown sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom and partially up the sides of the pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add sugar, and beat until smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well and scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Beat until very smooth and no lumps are visible.
  • Beat in vanilla and Bailey's.
  • Pour into prepared pan, and bake for 75 minutes. When finished, the center should be slightly wobbly, about the consistency of gelatin.
  • Turn oven off, crack the door open, and slowly cool the cheesecake for 45 minutes. This step is not necessary, but will help prevent cracks from forming.
  • Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate until ready to serve. If desired, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
