Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of crushed graham crackers
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 24 ounces of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup butterscotch sauce
- Food coloring (blue and silver)
- Edible glitter for cosmic effect
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool.
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and vanilla. Mix in eggs one at a time, then fold in heavy cream and butterscotch sauce.
- Pour the batter into the cooled crust, smoothing the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Cool in the oven with the door cracked for an hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- Mix powdered sugar, heavy cream, and food coloring to create a galaxy effect glaze. Drizzle over the chilled cheesecake and sprinkle with edible glitter.
Notes
- Store the cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Serve chilled, optionally garnished with additional butterscotch sauce or whipped cream.
- Can modify ingredients for special diets using low-fat cream cheese or sugar substitutes.
