Eggnog Cheesecake Delight

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Eggnog Cheesecake Delight.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C).

2. Step 2

   In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until everything is well blended.

3. Step 3

   This delightful mixture will form the base of your cheesecake, so press it firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create a sturdy crust.

4. Step 4

   Pop the crust into the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, then let it cool on a wire rack while you prepare the filling.

5. Step 5

   Now, crank up the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) to get it ready for the next step.

6. Step 6

   As the crust cools, it’s time to whip up the creamy filling.

7. Step 7

   In a food processor, combine cream cheese, sugar, eggnog, and flour, blending until the mixture is smooth and velvety.

8. Step 8

   Next, add in the eggs, a splash of rum, and a sprinkle of nutmeg, blending again until everything is perfectly incorporated.

9. Step 9

   Pour this luscious eggnog filling into your cooled crust, spreading it evenly.

10. Step 10

    Bake your cheesecake in the hot oven for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to a gentle 250°F (120°C).

11. Step 11

    Continue baking until the edges are puffed and the center has a slight jiggle, which should take about 45 minutes.

12. Step 12

    Once it’s done, carefully loosen the sides of the springform pan and let the cheesecake cool before removing the rim completely.

13. Step 13

    Now comes the best part: slice into your beautifully baked eggnog cheesecake and savor each creamy, festive bite.
