Cappuccino Cheesecake
Coffee and dessert, all in one!
Makes 12–16 servings
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
1
2 cup half-and-half
cooking spray
3 tablespoons unsalted butter,
cut into
1
2-inch pieces
2
1
2 cups granulated sugar, divided
3
4 cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
1
4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1
4 teaspoon baking powder
1
8 teaspoon salt
1 large egg yolk
16 ounces cream cheese (regular),
at room temperature
16 ounces lowfat cream cheese, at
room temperature
4 large eggs, not cold from refrigerator*
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
chocolate curls for garnish, optional
In a small bowl dissolve the espresso
powder in the half-and-half; reserve.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a
9 x 3-inch springform or cheesecake pan
with cooking spray.
Place the butter and
1
4 cup of the sugar
in a medium bowl. Mix on Speed 2 to
cream, 1
1
2 minutes. Add flour, cocoa,
cinnamon, baking powder, and salt; mix
on Speed 1 until combined, 30 seconds.
Add egg yolk and mix on Speed 1 until
crumbly, 15 seconds. Press into bottom
of prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven
for 10 minutes, until slightly puffed (crust
may have cracked appearance – that is
normal). Place on a rack to cool. When
the pan is cool to touch, wrap a sheet
of aluminum foil around the bottom and
sides of the pan so that it comes up at
least 2 inches.
Place cream cheeses and remaining
sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat on
Speed 1 until combined and smooth,
2 minutes. Using Speed 1, add eggs,
one at a time, mixing for 15 seconds
after each addition. Scrape the bowl. Add
cornstarch; mix on Speed 1, 20 seconds.
Scrape the bowl. Add half-and-half
mixture and vanilla; mix on Speed 1
until smooth and completely combined.
Pour the mixture over the cooled crust.
Place the pan in a larger aluminum pan
and place in the oven; add enough
hot water to the outer pan so that it is
1
2-inch deep. Bake in the preheated
350°F oven for 60 to 70 minutes, until
the cheesecake is pulling away from the
sides of the pan; the center will be jig-
gly. Remove from the oven, remove the
foil and let cool completely on a rack.
Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serv-
ing. Garnish with chocolate curls
if desired.
* Warm cold eggs safely before using
by placing in a bowl of hot (not boiling)
water for 10 minutes. They will incorpo-
rate more easily into your mixture.
