Need a simple cheesecake recipe? This is the cheesecake recipe for you. I made the graham cracker crust from scratch, but you could buy a pre-made crust to shave a few minutes off this recipe (just use 2 packages of cream cheese instead of 3). This plain cheesecake recipe is perfect so everyone can pick out their favorite toppings!
Ingredients (Crust)
Graham Crackers
Melted Unsalted Butter
Ingredients (Filling)
Cream Cheese
Powdered Sugar
Vanilla
Heavy whipping cream
Instructions
In a food processor, pulse 2 packages of graham crackers and one stick of unsalted melted butter. (I was lazy and didn’t want to dirty additional dishes, so used my stand mixer and a meat pounder to crunch up the graham crackers.
Once your graham crackers are a good consistency for a crust, get a springform pan and put your graham cracker crust inside and shape in the pan - put the crust 1 inch up the side.
Now, you can make the cheesecake filling. In your stand mixer, mix three room temperature cream cheeses until smooth. Then, mix in around 2 cups of powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon vanilla and mix on high until smooth.
Next, mix in 1 cup of cold heavy whipping cream and beat until thick and fluffy.
Now place the cheesecake filling into your crust and refrigerate up to six hours.
To serve, use your favorite toppings and enjoy!
