What you need

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 16 ounces goat's milk cream cheese (see recipe above) or store-bought chevre, softened
  • 8 ounces regular cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole goat's milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes and cool slightly.
  2. Beat the goat's milk cream cheese, regular cream cheese, and sugar together until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the goat's milk and vanilla.
  4. Pour the filling over the crust and place the springform pan in a larger pan with hot water halfway up the sides.
  5. Bake 50-55 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly. Cool completely, then chill at least 4 hours before serving.
