Υλικά

CRUST

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

Οδηγίες

Combine graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter.

Press into the bottom of a spring form pan (using a parchment round at the bottom will prevent sticking when you remove it).

Freeze for 15 minutes.

**For uniform, ice cream-cheesecake hybrid**

In a large bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, 2/3 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy. Add softened ice cream and beat until a uniform product has been created. Note: you will need to be sure to scrape the sides and bottom to fully incorporate the cream cheese.

Spread mixture over the frozen crust.

Freeze for 5 hours or overnight.

**For separate cheesecake/ice cream layers**

In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese, 2/3 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy - set aside.

Soften ice cream (leave on counter for 5 minutes, or microwave at 15 second intervals) and spread onto the frozen crust, making sure it's packed down.

Spread cream cheese layer over ice cream.

Freeze for 5 hours or overnight.

When ready to serve, leave cheesecake sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes, or the pan can be partially submerged in warm water for a few seconds.

Use a knife dipped in warm water to slice.

Σημειώσεις

The crust and ice cream flavors are easy to mix and match to create a lot of fun variations. As long as there aren't any mix-ins or things in the ice cream that would cause an unpleasant texture, the sky's the limit.

Violife non-dairy cream cheese and non-dairy ice cream work great!

Candies, cookies, or other embellishments can easily be added to the top of the cheesecake while it's soft. Swirls can be made by squirting lines or zigzags of a sauce and running a butter knife through to style it.

Some favorite combinations:
