Banana Foster Cheesecake Recipe: A Delicious Twist on a Classic Dessert

If you're a fan of cheesecake and bananas foster, then this recipe is for you! This mouth-watering dessert combines the creaminess of cheesecake with the sweetness of bananas foster, making it the perfect treat for any occasion.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 4 ripe bananas
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup rum
• 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl and mix well. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool.

Next, prepare the bananas foster topping. In a saucepan, cook the ripe bananas, brown sugar, and rum over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick and syrupy.

For the cheesecake filling, beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture over the cooled crust and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the center is almost set.

Top the cheesecake with the bananas foster mixture and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
