PHILADELPHIA Classic Cheesecake: Best Recipe~!

by trisha haas

Admittedly, dessert is my weakness and more specifically, cheesecake. So when I was challenged to recreate one of the rocking rcipes available here, I took one look and knew that I could not resist the lovely, decadent, deliciousness of a real home cheesecake.

BEST Original Cheesecake Recipe, simple, dense, fluffy, and every bite delicious

I can remember when I was in high school making a cheesecake was my very first “big” recipe I made alone. I spent HOURS on it. I mean it takes maybe 20 minutes to whip up, but then an hour to bake and another 5 to chill. By the time that thing was out of the oven, we were all ready to dig in. And by morning my beautiful strawberry topped cheesecake, that stole a Saturday during my youth, was but a memory of cheesy delight.

I honestly do not believe I have made one since, so its been 20 years in the making and I am still going to use the classic Philadelphia cheesecake recipe we all know and love (and used with permission). I also have another holiday ready delicious no bake Eggnogg Cheesecake!

PHILADELPHIA Classic Cheesecake

  • 1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3Tbsp. sugar
  • 1/3cup butter or margarine, melted Filling
  • 4pkg. (8 oz. each) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1cup sugar
  • 1tsp. vanilla
  • 4eggs

MAKE IT:

  1. HEAT oven to 325°F
  2. MIX graham crumbs, 3 Tbsp. sugar and butter; press into bottom of 9-nch springform pan.
  3. BEAT cream cheese, 1 cup sugar and vanilla with mixer until blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended. Pour over crust.
  4. BAKE 55 min. or until center is almost set. Loosen cake from rip of pan; cool before removing rim. Refrigerate 4 hours.

Top with

Chocolate, Caramel, Strawberries, the worlds best cranberry blueberry sauce or DON’T! Its perfect on its own too!

    Cheesecake is a huge vice of mine and I could eat it right off your page! I love that you didn’t put sour cream on the top. I never understood that:( I have put in the filling but never on top. Yours is a classic recipe and I need to run to the store to get more cream cheese so I can make it tonight!

    This looks delicious! Perhaps if I print this recipe and leave the page in the kitchen my spouse will make it for me!

    Sometimes the classic basic recipes are the best recipes. I will have to try making this classic cheesecake recipe for sure because the family loves cheesecake. Thanks so much for sharing.

    Cheesecake is already really sweet and tasty. The fresh strawberry make this one a lot more special.

    You made cheesecake in big school? I’ve never made cheesecake, been too afraid to try. Your dessert looks amazing. Maybe I’ll give it a try this summer because we are growing strawberries and I’ll be looking for recipes for them.

    I LOVE a real cheesecake. And, nothing works better than Philadelphia Cream Cheese. There are some ingredients that you can change to generic or store brand without even noticing…the cream cheese in a real cheesecake is not one of them!

    This looks so good. I would definitely love to eat a piece of it. I am not an overly huge fan of cheesecakes, but this one caught my attention.

    Oh my goodness. This looks so good. I’ve never really had a true Cheesecake before. But this looks so good and worth trying!

    I haven’t had a slice of cheesecake (NY style which is what this is) in so very long! I love it–especially topped with strawberries–decadence and satisfying and I want some NOW.
