Description

A rich cheesecake flavored with eggnog and coffee, suitable for holidays.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup eggnog
  • 1/4 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar in a bowl. Pour in melted butter and mix until combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
  4. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1 cup sugar until smooth.
  5. Beat in the eggnog and cooled coffee until just combined. Mix in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Pour the batter over the cooled crust.
  7. Place the springform pan into a larger roasting pan. Carefully pour hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this is a water bath).
  8. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
  9. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
  10. Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  11. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
  12. Before serving, sprinkle the top lightly with ground nutmeg.

Notes

  • Use strong, cooled espresso or very strong brewed coffee for the best flavor.
  • If you do not want to use a water bath, bake the cheesecake at 325 degrees F for about 60-70 minutes, then cool slowly in the turned-off oven with the door ajar.
