Best Sinful Cheesecake Recipes

SINFUL SNICKERS CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Prepare crust: Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Cover the bottom of a 10-inch spring-form pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Using a food processor, finely crush all the Oreo cookies.
• Add melted butter, water and sugar to the cookie crumbs and continue using processor until the mixture is well blended.
• Turn this cookie mixture out into the spring-form pan and using your fingers, gently work the cookie mixture until the bottom of the pan is covered with about one inch up on the sides.
• Bake for only 6 or 7 minutes, no longer or the crust will be too hard.
• It is okay if the crust rises a little during the baking-- if this occurs, use the flat bottom of a glass to gently press down and set aside to cool.
• Prepare filling: Using a large bowl and an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until it is light and fluffy.
• When cream cheese is fluffy, add in one egg and mix well.
• Add second egg and mix well.
• Add in sour cream and sugar.
• Remove electric mixture to gently fold in the Nestle' chocolate chips and chopped Snickers candy bars.
• Pour batter onto the crust and spread the mixture out from the middle to all the sides to help it bake evenly.
• Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place spring-form pan in middle and bake at 375F for about 45 minutes, or until top is light brown.
• It's ok if the middle of the cheesecake is sunk in a little.
• Transfer the cheese cake to a rack and cool while still in the spring-form pan.
• Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the cheesecake and refrigerate (still in spring-form pan) for at least four hours or more- overnight is best.
• Prepare glaze: Melt chocolate chips, butter and only 1/3 of the heavy whipping cream in a double boiler over medium heat until just at the melting stage.
• Remove from heat and stir mixture until smooth.
• (You can use a microwave for this part but ensure the bowl is microwave safe).
• While still warm, stir in remaining heavy whipping cream and mix until well blended.
• Using a sharp paring knife, run is around the edges of the spring-form pan to gently separate the cheesecake from the pan sides.
• Release the spring-form and remove from the cheesecake.
• Place cheesecake on serving dish and pour the chocolate glaze into the shallow crater.
• Sprinkle crushed peanuts or extra Snickers shavings on top.
• Refrigerate to allow the glaze to set.

SINFUL CHEESECAKE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Line a 9-inch (23cm) square pan with foil, making sure it goes up all four sides. Use two sheets if necessary. Mist with non-stick spray or grease lightly.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (180C).
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and beat in the 2/3 cup (130g) sugar, then the eggs.
• Mix in the flour, cocoa powder and salt, then the vanilla and chocolate chips. Spread evenly in the prepared pan.
• In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, the yolk, 5 tablespoons (75g) of sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
• Distribute the cream cheese mixture in eight dollops across the top of the brownie mixture, then take a dull knife or spatula and swirl the cream cheese mixture with the chocolate batter.
• Bake for 35 minutes, or until the batter in the center of the pan feels just set.
• Let cool, then lift out the foil and peel it away. Cut the brownies into squares.
• Storage: These will keep in an airtight container for a couple of days. They also freeze well, too.

SECRETLY SINFUL COCONUT SHORTBREAD CHEESECAKE

Press cookie mixture into bottom of pan and set aside. Whip softened cream cheese with Splenda well. Add eggs (or substitute) one at a time, blending between each. Add vanilla and coconut extract and whip mixture well. Pour over cookie crust. Fill a baking pan with warm water, about one quart, and place in the bottom rack of the oven. Place cheesecake on middle rack and bake for 50 to 55 minutes until center is only slightly firm. Remove from oven and cool on rack. Run a warm knife around edges to loosen pan and remove sides of springform pan. For added panache, heat sugar free strawberry jam in a sauce pan. Pour warm melted jam onto a plate and top with a slice of the cheesecake. SINFUL! But guilt free!
