Light and Creamy Cheesecake Recipe

My creamy, fluffy, easy cheesecake recipe is perfectly sweet with a light and delicate texture, all wrapped in a crunchy Graham cracker and toasted pecan crust. Getting the perfect no crack bake is easier than you think and the end result is so beautiful it almost doesn’t need any topping!

Hmmm, let's take a dense & flavorful dessert and ruin it 🤣 Light and Creamy should never be used to describe cheesecake. I do admit the phrase Light and Creamy does aptly describe the host's personality. FYI bruheem, never ever ever ever let me catch you taking the pish out on xmas fruitcake by lightening up that recipe or you'll have more than a bored chef to deal with, you'll have Santa, angry grannies and about 20,000 elves unemployed bcuz of covid to explain your mischief to bucko. They can't even work at Amazon because they're not human and Jeff Bezos is elf phobic due to some incident at a mall where a drunken Santa was killed by an elf bcuz of a dispute over the cute girl with the tattoo & nose ring at Cinnabuns. But I digress... I'm cereal about this too. You chef wannabe types loaf around in the kitchen playing food chemist while the rest of us work our buns off just trying to put food on the table and when you've got kids and park animals to feed you want that sweet sweet Xmas fruitcake or cheesecakes to be dense as possible, like me! I beat Brick Tamlund for world's densest man in 2013 so I'm an expert in this field of opinion. I hope this is a wake up call for you so you can change your ways before the calorie police catch up to you bruh. Hey, I know a light recipe for Jell-O, it's called Kool aid. Mmmm, delicious. Goes down like water with 1,000x the calories and toxic food colorings.

My step mother works hours and hours at hospitals risking her life, and her birthday is in about 10 days, since I am only 14 there isnt much I can do but I will definitely be buying the stuff to make this and make it for her as cheesecake is her favorite dessert.

Ingredients: 16-18 Graham crackers Toasted pecans 1/4 cup granulated sugar 5.5tbsp unsalted butter -2 1/2 lbs cream cheese room temp (4.5 packaged) (36oz) -1 3/4 cups sugar -1/2 tea spoon salt -3/4 cup sour cream -2 teaspoon vanilla extract -3 tablespoons of flour -5 large eggs room temp One year late and I come back to see all these appreciative people haha. Apparently I got the egg ingredients wrong. It’s 5 large eggs and 2 egg yolks. That may explain why mine was the way it was😂

This is the 5th cheesecake recipe I have seen in a week & they are all different. I made my 1st one today, I made the mistake of not putting the butter in the base 😢 in the cream cheese I mixed in powdered sugar, zest of 2 small lemon's & the juice of 3 lemon's. And the base is a mixture of butternut snap & ginger nut biscuits (Australia) As my first attempt at a cheesecake I give it 8 out of 10. Not bad for a 65 year young man's 1st attempt 😊

[@sarahasim92]

So lovely

[@User-cb4jm]

I find the Australian equivalent of graham crackers would be plain Digestive biscuits, but definitely can substitute for ginger nut if you like the flavour :)

He said to bake 10 minutes at 350, but his recipe instructions say 20 minutes at 350. Which is correct? Also he doesn't add cinnamon in the video, but his recipe calls for 1/2 tsp. Did you use cinnamon?

[@shari-my1en]

I made my cheesecake for the first time in my life! It was a gift for my husband. And the cake turned out delicious! Everyone was joking that I bought it in the store haha I also added the sour cream+vanilla on the top and some berries. It was delicious!

[@jennytocool]

I made this and it was so good !! I bought 2 pie crust but it wasn’t enough. Get 3 if ur gonna buy it. I also used less sugar. Definitely taste as you go.

[@marshaphagoo4214]

The printed recipe was a bit different from the video but it turned out amazing. No cracks. No water bath needed. Creamy texture, my daughter even said it's the best cheesecake she's ever had. High praise indeed. Thanks for the recipe, it's a keeper for sure

[@florabeltaine4620]

The little music when you talked about Mrs Crocombe! I swear you are soooo adorable. I watch your videos for the same reason I watch hers, just for a nice relaxing moment I don't even plan to bake anything I just like your personality. Such a lucky family you have

I made your cheesecake yesterday and it was a hit! Passed it out to my neighbors and sent some to my boyfriends workers and they thought I bought it at a bakery! Really great recipe!

[@jcmac185]

Recipe on website doesn’t jive with the one shown here. Website has quantities for smaller volume than 9 inch springform. Does look awesome!!

[@Azura5686]

Thank You!!!!!! I made this for my mom‘s birthday today. And it came out absolutely perfect! She thought it was professionally made ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you again, your instructions were very easy to understand and follow.

[@korra1223]

My sis and I made this recipe as our first attempt in cheesecake and it WAS HEAVENLY. Highly recommend! We added some cinnamon in the crust too for a touch of fall!

[@msjg27]

Made this yesterday and it turned out light and fluffy!! I made some adjustments tho, I used 4packs of cream cheese since my springform pan is smaller than 10" and I only used 1cup of sugar, sweetness is just perfect. Although I forgot to put in the flour it's still amazing, just a bit off with the integrity of the cheesecake since it's humid where I am now but overall turned out well!! Thank you for this recipe!! ❤️❤️

I love this guy he takes his time to explain and he puts how many cups on the screen it helps me

[@stephnee155]

Thank you so much for helping me achieve my first delicious cheesecake. It was my very first try, my crust needed more butter to keep it stable, and my instincts told me that but I didn’t want to make a mistake, so I kept as close to the recipe as possible! Next time I will make sure I add more butter so my crust does not crumble down. This recipe is so delicious and my cheesecake didn’t crack! Again, thank you so much for teaching me! One more thing, I think I’m going to sift the flour, it created lumps when I sprinkled it in.

[@Monika-ds4nw]

I love how you're preparing your pies and your sense of humour. Thanks for the recipes that you can easily prepare at your home and the results are outstanding☺️

Just found this channel. I have to say, the gold kitchen utensils and awesome stove combined with your calming demeanor makes for an aesthetically and sonically pleasing watch.

[@nijzimmerman]

If like me, anyone else panics when their filling turns out runny and not fluffy like the video. Don’t worry just let it cool to room temp after baking and let set up in the fridge overnight it turned out soooo good what a great recipe! The toasted pecans in the pie crust was a favorite in my house. Thanks for the great video!

[@mortonwinsor]

My husband followed this recipe today and made an absolutely delicious dessert for us to enjoy after dinner. Thank you!

[@jolireina]

Thanks for this recipe. I made this a couple of days ago and it was a hit. I actually made 2 batters: one with an Oreo crust and the second with a graham crackers crust. I added only half the sugar into the batter and skipped it completely in the crust. It was delicious.

[@rahelfantaye6154]

This is such an easy recipe to follow , and it is officially become my family's cheesecake recipe. I just made it yesterday and every body loved it:) Thank you

[@Rosebud7195]

Cheesecake Recipe Ingredients For the Crust: 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (180g) ¼ cup unsalted butter melted 2 tablespoons granulated sugar For the Filling: 3 (8-ounce/227g) blocks cream cheese room temperature 1 cup granulated sugar (200g) ¼ teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (10mL) 3 large eggs room temperature ½ cup sour cream room temperature (120g) Instructions For the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350F. In a medium bowl, combine the cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Stir together until the mixture feels like wet sand. Pour into a 9-inch springform pan. (If your pan isn’t non-stick, you can lightly spray it with baking spray before adding the crumb mixture.) Press the crumbs into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan using the bottom of a glass or measuring cup. Place on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool while making the filling. For the Filling: Place the cream cheese in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-low speed until creamy and smooth, about 1 minute. Add the sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat until the mixture is well combined and completely smooth. Stop and scrape down the bowl a few times during mixing. With the mixer on medium-low speed, add in the eggs one at a time. Stop and scrape down the bowl between additions. Once the eggs are well combined, mix in the sour cream until well incorporated. Pour the batter into the cooled crust. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300F and continue baking for another 30 to 35 minutes or until the edges of the filling are just slightly puffed and the center wobbles slightly when gently shaken. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door closed for 1 hour. Remove the cheesecake and let cool at room temperature for another hour, then chill for at least 6 hours or up to 3 days. (If refrigerating for several days, loosely cover after the cheesecake is fully chilled.) When ready to serve, run a thin knife around the outside of the cake. Release the springform and remove the sides. Run a knife under the bottom of the crust to release it from the base. Carefully transfer to a cake plate. Notes Do not open the oven to peek. The hot air from the oven will escape, and cold air will enter the oven, causing the cheesecake to fall or crack. When you pour the cheesecake batter into the pan, gently tap the cheesecake on the counter to pop any air bubbles in the batter. Make sure to bring your cold ingredients, such as the eggs, sour cream, and cream cheese, to room temperature, so they will easily incorporate without overmixing. Avoid overmixing the batter as it’ll incorporate too much air into the batter, leading to the cheesecake rising and falling, giving you a cracked surface. An offset spatula is a great tool to help get the top of the cheesecake super smooth before baking. Let the cheesecake cool gradually. Don’t place it directly into the fridge to speed up the process, or it will develop condensation when covered or absorb scents in the

[@mariashelton314]

I don’t understand. Is this another recipe ?

[@agieoyuz]

@@mariashelton314it’s the recipe on his website. I got confused as well because it’s slightly different than the video. It’ll be my first bake and I think I’ll ruin it. The video said flour, but the recipe didn’t mention it. The video said 5+2 egg yolk, the website recipe just 3 with no additional. Please help

I've grown to LOVE your videos. It started with making spanakopita with you beautiful Momma and now, I look for your recipes for everything I make. I'm a new chef but I've been cooking and baking for 40 years. I went to Augustus Escoffier to hone my skills and ended up learning more than I ever thought I could. All in all though, me going to the school of John has made me love to cook and bake more than I thought possible. Love you and your videos!! Oh my gosh and I LOVE YOUR KITCHEN!!!!

[@agieoyuz]

I just made it again! I followed the print recipe on the 1st tried and it was cracked. The taste was so good tho. This time I followed the video recipe with xtra graham crackers and a bit less sugar. Yes, the batter was runny in comparison to John’s. I baked it as he told. 10 mins at 350f then down to 300 for 40 mins. Then, let it sit in the oven for an hour. The are some bubbles, but no crack!!!So proud 🥹 We’ll see how the taste tomorrow tho 😅

[@lynettenelson3701]

I made my first real cheesecake (I've made several of the no bake Jello ones) using your video to guide me. It turned out perfect! My family loved it, and it was so delicious and addictive! I'm going to make the cupcake version along with Christmas cookies to gift my neighbors 🙂 Thank you so much!

My grandson made this for us and it was so good I did not want to eat the last bite! 😢 Not wanting the delight to end. He sent me here for the recipe. I will do my best and I don't think it will be as good.... he has that special talent AND LOVE for cooking.

This looks delicious and I will definitely try it! However, it would have been very helpful if you had shown what it looks like when it comes out of the oven so we can tell what it looks like when it’s done. Can’t wait for your next video!

[@hannahofhorror]

I know I’m not John but for what it’s worth, I’m sure it had “some” wobble/jiggle, while the perimeter is set. I know that’s not a standardised measure haha but there are a couple videos floating around the internet that show what a cheesecake should look like out of the oven, so I’m guessing it looks like that as that’s the norm :)

[@UntakenNick]

I cook it by time, judging by the appearance it always looks completely raw when I take it out of the oven but settles perfectly after cooling down.

I make this recipe--well a bit smaller proportions--often, and it always comes out perfect. turning the oven down after 10" is important, and I let my cake cool down with the oven off for some time after cooking, then pop it in the refrigerator. Gone in a day or two max!

[@ambercotton3260]

I followed this recipe mostly. My cheesecake pan is in storage so instead I used a 6x10 (or11) inch glass baking dish. I also for some stupid reason decided to bake it in my "toaster" oven. Yes it does have a bake option, it's not just for toasting. Anyway, it doesn't bake evenly. The back bakes quicker than the front. So, my cheesecake was absolutely delicious but, the one side was a little more baked. Not to much though. It was still yummy. Plus, I made the most DELICIOUS homemade blueberry compote with fresh blueberries for the topping. It was amazing! Tysm!
