Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup dulce de leche, plus extra for drizzling
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add dulce de leche, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined and creamy.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
- Serve: Once set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Drizzle additional dulce de leche on top before slicing and serving.
