Prepare the Crust
To start making your cheesecake in the Crock-Pot Express Multi Cooker, you’ll first need to prepare the crust. Here’s how you can do it:
1. Choose your preferred crust type. You can use graham crackers, Oreo cookies, or any other type of crumbly cookie for the crust.
2. Crush the cookies or crackers in a food processor until they form a fine, sandy texture. Alternatively, you can place them in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
3. Melt about 1/4 cup of unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stove. Make sure it is fully melted but not hot.
4. Combine the crushed cookies or crackers with the melted butter in a mixing bowl. Stir until all the crumbs are coated with butter and the mixture resembles wet sand.
5. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a greased or lined springform pan, using the back of a spoon or your fingers to ensure an even layer.
6. Place the pan with the crust in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to allow it to set.
Your crust is now ready to be filled with the delicious cheesecake mixture!
Make the Cheesecake Filling
To make the cheesecake filling for your Crock Pot Express Multi Cooker cheesecake, you will need the following ingredients:
2 packages (16 ounces) cream cheese, softened | 1/2 cup granulated sugar |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract | 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
2 large eggs | 1/2 cup sour cream |
1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the vanilla extract and flour to the cream cheese mixture and continue to beat until well combined.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. Finally, mix in the sour cream until fully incorporated into the cheesecake filling.
Now that your cheesecake filling is ready, you can proceed to the next step of assembling and cooking your cheesecake in the Crock Pot Express Multi Cooker.
Layer the Crust and Filling
Now that you have prepared your crust and filling, it’s time to layer them in your Crock Pot Express Multi Cooker.
Start by pressing the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of the cooking pot. Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to make sure it is evenly distributed and well-packed.
Next, pour the cheesecake filling on top of the crust. Spread it out evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Make sure the filling covers the entire surface of the crust.
If desired, you can add a swirl or two of fruit puree on top of the filling. Use a spoon or a toothpick to gently swirl the puree into the filling, creating a marbled effect.
Once you have layered the crust and filling, it’s time to cook the cheesecake. Follow the instructions in your Crock Pot Express Multi Cooker manual to set the cooking time and temperature.
Remember to be patient and avoid opening the lid frequently during cooking, as this can affect the texture and consistency of the cheesecake.
When the cooking time is up, carefully remove the cheesecake from the cooker. Let it cool at room temperature for about an hour, then refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight to allow it to set completely.
Once the cheesecake is fully chilled, it’s ready to be served. You can top it with fresh berries, whipped cream, or any other toppings of your choice.
