Ingredients

  • 150 grams Graham crackers
  • 25 grams Sugar
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 100 grams Unsalted butter
  • 250 grams Cream cheese
  • 50 grams Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tbsp Rum
  • 200 ml Heavy cream
  • 30 grams Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 Vanilla extract

Method

  • Place the graham crackers, sugar, and cinnamon into a plastic bag, and crush finely.
  • Add the melted butter into the cracker bag, and blend well into one lump.
  • Press in firmly by hand into the tart mold while evening it out.
  • Start preheating the oven to 160C.
  • Grind sugar into the cream cheese softened to room temperature (or microwaved for 30 seconds).
  • Whisk the eggs, add into the bowl in three turns, mixing well each turn.
  • Add in the rum.
  • Pour the into the tart crust from above, and bake at 160C for 30 minutes.
  • After baking and cooling, chill in the fridge for more than 3 hours (or overnight if you can).
  • After the cake has completely cooled, then add 1 cm of hot water to a shallow dish (a microwave turntable is convenient), and warm it up (for about 10 seconds).
  • Place a plate on top of the cake, and flip it over while holding it in your hand.
  • After removing from the mold, flip it over once more in the same manner.
  • Add sugar to the heavy cream, whip until it thickens, add in the lemon juice and vanilla extract, and whip until soft peaks form.
  • Cleanly spread out the heavy cream on the cheesecake that has been removed from the mold cleanly.
  • Before cutting it up, chill, and then cut with a warmed knife for clean slices.
