Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries, plus extra for garnish
  • 1/4 cup sugar (for cranberry sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even layer.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  3. Make the Filling: In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add melted white chocolate, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  4. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture until incorporated.
  5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the white chocolate filling over the crust in the springform pan, spreading evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  6. Prepare the Cranberry Topping: In a small saucepan, combine fresh cranberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until cranberries burst and sugar dissolves, about 5-7 minutes. Allow to cool.
  7. Serve: Once the cheesecake is set, spread the cranberry topping over the top. Garnish with additional cranberries if desired. Slice and enjoy!
