Cinnamon and cardamom cheesecake
Intense cinnamon and cardamom cheesecake recipe with shredded coconut and cookie crust.
Ingredients
- 450 g spreadable cream cheese I used Arla cream cheese
- 120 g brown sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 small eggs or 2 big
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp ground cardamom

- 45 g shredded coconut

Instructions
Instructions: Cinnamon and cardamom cheesecake
- For this recipe I used cream cheese made by Arla that was kindly offered to me by its manufacturer. This cheese is 100% natural. It contains no preservatives, coloring agents, additives or stabilizers of any kind.
- Whisk spreadable cream cheese, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract and eggs. Put aside for a few minutes and stir again to let the brown sugar dissolve well.
- Add spices and whisk again. Place the mixture in the refrigerator for 3 hours. This will allow this cheesecake to become perfectly creamy and smooth during baking process.
- Prepare the cookie base. Blend your cookies with desiccated coconut. Add melted butter and stir.
- For this recipe I used a round silicone baking pan, but a classic springform pan is fine too. Cover the bottom of a 20 cm round pan with a circle of baking paper (not necessary if you use the silicone pan). Fill the bottom of the pan with prepared mixture. Press on the bottom with a spoon to make it even. Put in the refrigerator for half an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 165 °C. Stir the cream cheese mixture and pour it over the cookie base. Bake for about 1 hour or until the cheesecake remains completely compact and elastic to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. Place it in the refrigerator for about 6 hours or until your cheesecake has completely set.
