SANTA FE CHEESECAKE

A delicious savory appetizer, to serve with tortilla chips and salsa. This recipe will serve a large number because it is rich and a little goes a long way. I sometimes make half a recipe and bake it in a 6-inch springform pan for a smaller party. Heated, this makes an awesome dip for the fondue pot.

THREE CITIES OF SPAIN CHEESECAKE



Three Cities of Spain Cheesecake image

No cheesecake roundup would be complete without this one, created by Santa Fe's Three Cities of Spain coffeehouse (which closed in the mid-1970s) and our absolute favorite in the creamy category.

Categories     Gourmet     Dessert     Cheesecake     Cake     Cheese     Egg     Bake     Cream Cheese     Sour Cream

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 crumb-crust recipe made with finely ground graham crackers
3 (8-oz) packages cream cheese, softened
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sugar
For topping
16 oz sour cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Make crumb crust as directed. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Make filling and bake cake:
  • Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until fluffy and add eggs, 1 at a time, then vanilla and sugar, beating on low speed until each ingredient is incorporated and scraping down bowl between additions.
  • Put springform pan with crust in a shallow baking pan. Pour filling into crust and bake in baking pan (to catch drips) in middle of oven 45 minutes, or until cake is set 3 inches from edge but center is still slightly wobbly when pan is gently shaken. Let stand in baking pan on a rack 5 minutes. Leave oven on.
  • Make topping:
  • Stir together sour cream, sugar, and vanilla. Drop spoonfuls of topping around edge of cake and spread gently over center, smoothing evenly. Bake cake with topping 10 minutes.
  • Run a knife around top edge of cake to loosen and cool completely in springform pan on rack. (Cake will continue to set as it cools.) Chill cake, loosely covered, at least 6 hours. Remove side from pan and transfer cake to a plate. Bring to room temperature before serving.
