Ingredients
  

For the crust

  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake

  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened Use room temperature for best results.
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs Add one at a time.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups red velvet cake mix
  • 8 ounces white chocolate, melted

Optional Garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter. Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.

Making the cheesecake

  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 cup sugar, mixing well after each addition.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just incorporated.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and buttermilk until well blended.
  • Gently fold in the red velvet cake mix until just combined, then stir in the melted white chocolate until fully mixed.

Baking

  • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  • Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake sit inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
  • Remove from the oven, cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Serving

  • Slice the cheesecake and serve it on a nice plate. Add a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings. Enjoy with your favorite drink.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother mix. Do not overmix after adding the eggs. Measure the ingredients carefully for the best texture and taste.
