This is a great recipe! I have made it a couple of times. I recently made it into a Tiramisu cheesecake by adding kahlua / espresso dipped lady fingers at the bottom and middle. I also added a little kahlua to the batter and swapped out 8 ounces of cream cheese for mascarpone. Delicious!
Mad compliments. Made this today and everyone thought I had just decorated a store bought cake. I made it in the oven in a 9 in springform pan as I had nothing that fit in my instantpot. Baked at 350 for 15 minutes then at 200 for 1 hour, 20 minutes and she turned out perfect. Thanks so much for the recipe!
Made this cheesecake yesterday, it was only the second time I used my instant pot. I have never made one before. It turned out perfect! I was so happy & my elderly mom even more so as it's what she asked for. I thought it would be too hard to start learning how to use my instant pot with but it was so easy to do. She made a fresh strawberry sauce that we drizzled over it & we both giggled a lot while eating! Thank you for the great video!!
After I watched the video, I went out and bought the ingredients. My daughter came over yesterday and we got to work. Left it in the fridge until today and my daughter came back so we could both try it together. Exceeded my expectations. Absolutely delicious. This is coming from someone who grew up in NYC having the best cheese cakes all the time. She wants to make another one next Sunday. Thank you for the recipe. I'm going to be sharing it.
I make this sugar free. It comes out great! You can’t tell the difference! For the crust I use sugar free shortbread cookies and the butter. I substitute the sugar in the batter with swerve (or monk fruit sweetener) and use fruit on top. It’s wonderful.
I made this cheesecake recipe yesterday and it turned out perfect and delicious. I have never made cheesecake before in the oven or instant pot so I had my fingers crossed. I played your video once all the way through just watching it gathered all the ingredients, played it again starting and stopping it to follow you step by step. It came out fantastic first time. The only thing I did differently was I used a hand mixer because I didn't have a large wish. Thanks so much! Love your camera man and his commentary.
i just did the same thing as well. i've never baked any kind of dessert ever before i even did the eggs correctly and it didn't collapse at all, came out looking very similar to what i saw in the video
I did the same thing. I watched it several times before I fixed it. Actually watched his first version of it and then found this one where he made it a little different. Its so good
Best cheesecake and fastest explanation in the world. The "improvement" in the recipe took this cheesecake to an even higher level. It is nice to come back here after a few years and see your boys again, my gosh how they have grown!
I have viewed this UA-cam video several times over the past several months. I decided to take my instapot on vacation with me and try it out. I purchased the ingredients and started my cheese cake in the early morning. (Not that I figured I would need the whole day). I mixed the ingredients and set up the instapot. After cook time and DE pressuring time, I unsealed the lid and noticed that the top of the cheesecake was a small pool of water, as well on the edges. I dabbed the water up with a paper towel and it looked intact. It appeared solid. I placed it in the freezer for about 10 minutes, then placed it in the refrigerator. I did not follow up with mixing the topping. I planned use a cherry topping (canned) and a dash of whip cream. After about 8 hours I took it out of the refrigerator and topped it off with the cherry sauce and whip cream and served it. The comments from my family were very good . So, the cheesecake made with instapot was a success. Thanks for the information and formula.
4/2023. I have made this before and it was a definite winner. I will be making it this weekend for our Easter dinner. Not sure what else we are having, but I know we’re have cheesecake! A big Thank You to you and your sons for sharing your recipes!
Only my 2nd thing cooked in instant pot, THIS IS AMAZING!!! Thank you! EDIT: Brought the cheesecake to work for our Thanksgiving celebration. PEOPLE INHALED IT and asked for the recipe!! I can see this as a perfect base for future cheesecake adventures!
The instapot gave this the best, silkiest, melt-in-your mouth texture! I admit, I had to double the brown sugar & add more butter to the crust for my taste, but used slightly less sugar in the cheesecake. I also needed more sour cream topping. But that's just me. I plan on making this a LOT!
I have made this 3 times and it is truly delicious! Tweaked the recipe a bit. For the crust I omitted the salt as I was using salted butter, and added 1 tsp brown sugar and 1 tsp white sugar. For the filing I added 2 extra T sugar, and extra 1/2 tsp vanilla. So yummy!
I gave up making Cheesecake in the oven as no recipe worked. This was awesome and actually woke a few times during the night to see if it was time for a test slice. Camera man did a great step by step video and love that you only need a whisk, no mixer and I even made it easier by buying a graham crust, broke it up and smoothed it with the glass. Best breakfast ever topped with strawberries.
I just got my instant pot and my specialty has always been cheesecake, the long and tedious way. I'm now a 66 year old widow and I can't wait to try this recipe out! Thank you for sharing this and God bless you and your family 👑🙏💞🐾
I just made it this morning and followed directions to a tee. Let it sit for 8hrs in fridge. This is a terrific recipe. Taste better than Outback's cheesecake. I will be looking forward to making this for Thanksgiving. Thank you.
This is the only cheesecake i make now. I've made this probably about 25 times since your first video. The brown sugar in the crust has the best flavor. This cake is creamy and delicious. Thanks so much for sharing.
I've made a couple of cheesecakes in my Instant Pot...even made one in front of 30 ladies that I was doing a demo for at my church! But I have to say...can't wait to try this recipe. I love that you really don't have to cover it! I have to say...I've loved every one of the videos I've watched by you and your sons. You are all so delightful! I'm a granny of 11 and Great granny of 7. Can't wait to show some of them a video or two of yours. I know they'll enjoy it very much. Super family you have...excellent relationship with those boys. My youngest daughter has two boys ages 9 and 13. Look to be close to the ages of your boys. I'm going to share this video with them! Thanks for sharing.
Once again, this is a great place to start, with my own modifications. I added 3/4 c of creamy peanut butter and an additional egg, plus a tsp of butter flavoring. Cooked for 32 minutes. Perfect! Then, for the topping, I added 2/3 c of raspberry preserves to the sour cream & sugar. Yum!!! THANK YOU once more!!
This cheesecake turned out amazing. I have bad luck with trying to get cakes to congeal in the fridge, so I just plopped it in the freezer for a few hours, still on the parchment paper. Zero trouble getting it off, and it tastes exquisite. Thank you!!
Did it...followed exactly...EXCEPT I bounced it on the countertop 4-5 times, to get any bubbles out, IT WORKED beautifully! This is the best I've ever had, and looks so professional!
You and your son explain the directions so well! Making it so easy to follow and make yourself. I made this and it came out perfect! Everyone loved it. They thought it was from a fancy resturant. Much appreciated, thank you guys!
Just started using my Instant Pot and got adventurous -- tried this recipe and it was awesome!!!! I was never fond of cheesecake, but my husband loves it and he is a picky eater. He and I both loved it!!!! Making the Key Lime cheesecake for my daughter's birthday....keep helping us become great bakers/pressure cookers with the Instant Pot....
I make this recipe with Greek Yogurt instead of Sour Cream, and it comes out great! Pro tips: Add 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon to the crust if you're using regular graham crackers for a warmer flavor. Add 3 dashes of orange bitters to the filling. Many cheesecake recipes call for a small amount of citrus zest to add a subtle complexity to the flavor, and this is a cheat for accomplishing the same thing. Add jam or preserves to the topping, and cut down the sugar to 1/3 for a flavored topping.
I made 4 of these last year, from watching your video. Even froze 2 of them. My family loves them. Will be making more this month for the holiday season. Thank you for sharing and for the simple easy, and well given directions!
I’ve made this cheesecake several times and it’s absolutely delicious. My 2 year old granddaughter now asks for cheesecake every time she comes to our house. I made this at Christmas this year and it was just the right size to have in the dessert selection. We love it and I’ll be making this many, many more times.
made this today for the second time, always a success. I add around 2 tsp of lemon juice to the mix as well, gives more of that tart edgy funk taste to the NY cheesecake. legend, thank you .
I got an Instant Pot for Christmas and have been making your cheesecakes ever since and this one is delicious! I’ve made a couple changes because my pan is 7”, so I use 12 graham crackers for the crust and an extra tablespoon of butter. I put the graham crackers in a big zip lock bag and crush the crackers with a rolling pin. My pan is too big for the rack that came with the IP so I got another small one that doesn’t have handles (they are what get in the way). I also make a long strip of aluminum foil to lift the pan in and out of the pot. Other things I do, I get the ingredients room temperature before I start and I sift the corn starch otherwise it gets lumpy. Thanks for your videos, they are awesome and I love how you cook and make videos with your boys!
Amazon had no 6x3 Fat Daddy O pan you described. I found one that size but another brand. My Instant Pot is a 3 Qt Mini Duo. Is the time of 28 minutes the same in the Mini Duo?
I made this using the old video ( 26 minutes) and it was EXCELLENT, but the center was a little soft, and I thought a couple extra minutes would help. Well, Bamm I see you upped it. Seriously, Great easy REAL cheesecake. Thank you! I have shared this with a bunch of people.
This is hands down THE BEST homemade cheesecake recipe. My favorite cheesecake had always been the Costco cheesecake, and this tastes just like it except It’s a reasonable size. Thank you for sharing it!
I could NEVER make a cheesecake without it cracking and being dry. I"ll never make any other recipe. This was the best cheesecake I have ever made! A HUGE THANK YOU from a cheesecake fan. My family loved it! Made the Chocolate Malt too and it was divine!
I watched and researched at least 20 recipes. This one is the best. No frills just a great creamy cheese cake. Thanks for recipe. I didn’t even make 2 hours never mind 4. It will be finished within 8! Beautiful family.
I made my first one tonight, according to your recipe, but it a 7” spring form, at 35 minutes, because it’s a little bigger than your 6”. It’s got a very slight brown edge around the top, makes it look authentic to me. It will be tomorrow before I can tell you how it really turned out.
I tried this....I’ve never made one before. I didn’t even taste it-I’m not a cheesecake fan-but the person I gave it to said it was the best he ever had:). The only thing I did different was use a hand mixer and let it chill for 24 hours....
I’m really impressed with this video. Not only does the cheesecake look terrific, but the chef is using the exact instant pot that I have. I can’t wait to try this!
Cheesecake Daddy; Even after using the wrong pan, off brand cream cheese, and not having a wire whisk, the cheesecake turned out great! Thanks to you (and your tribe) for such a great recipe!!
Here from facebook, hearing the voice I thought 'oh this reminds me of the guy cooking with his cute son' and then was delighted to hear that same voice again - you go dad!
I bought the insta pot and made sure to buy the cake pan just because of your video. You and your boys are true salesmen. I love this video and can’t wait to try your recipe. Thank you for sharing with us. I wish you and the boys many blessings. 😊
OK so I’ve seen this recipe in the past and I saved it. So today I finally decided to make it since I’ve been having a craving for cheesecake. I don’t have an instant pot but I do have a power cooker XL pressure cooker and the settings are somewhat different than the instant pot. I went with my gut and I used the rice setting and I put it at the max minute which was 25 minutes and once it stopped I put a timer for the 10 minute pressure release but mine released before the 10 minutes. So I decided to leave the lid closed for an additional 10 to 15 minutes and when I took mine out it was perfect. I ended up using Nilla wafers for my crust and used 2 tsp white sugar since I didn’t want anything too sweet. I didn’t use the sour cream topping because I’m not a fan of it. But the cheesecake in itself was delicious. I would however next time pass the mixture through a sift to get out any cream cheese curdles that haven’t blended well. Thank you for sharing your cheesecake recipe. I will definitely keep this in my favorites from now on.
I made this cheese cake 2 days ago and i never made a cheese cake ever before and WOW I WAS SO IMPRESSED with this cake it blows my mind......so so FANTASTIC.....and i love your video with your children so fun to watch keep up the great work thank you
Made this for first time in my Instant Pot. Used a spring form pan. It came out perfect and is delicious! The topping really adds flavor and it made the cake pretty. Thanks for posting. The video really helped.
I just purchased the pan on Amazon and as soon as it arrives I am making this cheesecake!!! I can't wait for my hubby to taste it! Thank you for sharing! 😁
I got me instent pot a week ago. I made 3 of these cheese cakes . And share two cheese cake with relatives. This cheese cake is delicious! And easy to make . I got friends and family on Facebook I share this video to . Some want know how bake it in regular oven. I will make this cheese cake again. . Thank you for sharing your recipe .God bless you .
I bet that young man is going to have all kinds of girl friends. A man that helps to cook is worth his weight in gold. It is so nice to have a guy cook or bake for you.
I just made this cheesecake again and this time I served it to my kids and my grandchildren at dinner. Everybody thought it was the best cheesecake in the world! Thanks again for a great recipe and a great video!
Extra points for the old school land line on the wall behind you. You know, I've tried several recipes for this, the infamous #17 and others. I keep coming back to your videos though. Like this new one, making great NY Cheesecake and memories with the fam! Thanks for sharing
2nd time making it. This is a great recipe. It's nice to see a kind, patient Dad. You are a hero! Keep up the great work. Your children are going to be amazing adults. Thank you!
This is the best cheesecake I ever made and I learned from a chef. It was so good that I didn’t believe it - so I’m making another one just to be sure! Love the video with the kids.
I made this. Loved it! Had to do a few adaptations. My instant pot is an 8 qt. My smallest cheesecake springform is an 8". I only use raw sugar. I didn't have any sour cream on hand, so I substituted yogurt & some melted butter. But it turned out Great! Ghirardelli Chocolate sauce instead of the sweetened sour cream topping. Excellent texture. Big Hit!!! 😋😋😋
Made this and loved it! I used half the graham cracker crust recipe, as we're not fans of the thicker crusts, and it worked great. Good job. The video is entertaining as well - kudos on bringing the family into the production, and giving your son a chance to shine.
Tried it... loved it. It is ABSOLUTELY better after being refrigerated overnight because it gets "denser" with time. The only change I'll make next time is to halve the graham cracker crust amount because not all the batter fit into my 6 x 2.75 inch pan with that much crust. I know you used a 6x3, but figured mine would be big enough since we were not using the topping. Also, I used half sucralose artificial sweetener and we thought the sweetness was still perfect. BTW... I used the mini, 3qt insta-pot. Thanks for the recipe.
I made this! One thing I learned is the cream cheese has to be really warm and soft. I left mine out on the counter to soften like I would with butter, but it was still too cold. It was very difficult to incorporate it into the batter without lumps. Still turned out ok, but next time I will definitely make sure it's completely room temperature.
OMG. I am 67 years old and this was the best cheesecake I have ever tasted! Well done! Now I never have to buy another cheesecake. My wife wants me to look for an instant pot pumpkin cheesecake. LOL
I am from Liverpool in England and I've only just bought an instant pot made your yesterday angry had it 4RT absolutely well done it's the best cheesecake me and my husband I've never had x
This guy freed my baking self-up so much, because I'm not that coordinated and he showed me that you can cram all those ingredients together, stir the crap out of them and bake. His instructions are great, and he simplifies it so much it's fun. See and nobody cares... lololol.
This is a GREAT recipe to start with … I made a variation again. This time I used 18 Oreo cookies with 1 tbl of dried orange peel for the crust. For the filling, I used 1-1/2 large [14 ox] cans of mandarin oranges that were “puréed” in a blender, then drained, along with 2 Tbl of orange peel and 2 Tbl of orange extract … since it made it a little juicier, I added one egg and cooked for 33 minutes. [Perfect!]. For the topping, I added another Tbl of both orange peel and orange extract. Turned out great! Thanks for the great ‘started’ recipe … I’m sure I’ll be using it again and again! 👍👍
Instant pot came Tuesday. Pan 10 stops away. Starting recipe now. See...can’t wait to try this. 😋 Update: ok, so we made this. We forgot the cornstarch and over whipped a bit. It was still amazing. It turned out fluffy instead of dense. Oh, well. We need to make another one😉😋.
I just made this; I didn't forget the cornstarch, but it came out fluffy anyway. Still tastes good, though. Anyone who wants a sweeter cheesecake might want to add a little more sugar, but I thought it was very good as is.
Yeah Baby!! The easiest to follow recipe with the most clear directions ever. Your accomplices are awesome, what a great dad you are... thank you for sharing the recipe and a slice of your family life. Namaste.
Barely a minute in and I'm already intrigued; you just ripped off the liner paper, tucked it in and voila! I would've struggled with that thing, traced it out on the paper with a pencil (after looking for that and the scissors ) cut it out, struggling the whole time to keep the paper straight. Good job! 😄👍🏼
I make cheesecakes often! I’ve cut a reusable non stick baking sheet after marking it with a pen, with the bottom on top of the sheet. I also use a lid from my pot-in-pot so that I don’t need to remove any steam water on top when it’s cooked. Perfect for when storing it in the fridge too. 😃 Thanks Twin Cities Adventures for all the yummy recipes! My favorite so far is the Nutella-one😃🌷
YOU. ARE. FLIPPING AMAZING! You are the king of fun, easy and uncomplicated recipes and techniques. New sub. Thank you! Samuel is so handsome and will be a total catch someday with all the culinary skills he’s learning from Dad. Ladies love a guy who knows his way around a kitchen! Thank you again!
OMG, this is FANTASTIC!!! I made this and it’s the first time I’ve ever made cheesecake. I had to have my husband’s help with the batter because I’m not strong enough to beat it with the whisk. Next time I’m going to use a mixer. Thanks for your excellent recipe and demonstration!
I didn't think you could ever improve the first one you showed, it was so perfect! I will have to try this one. Looks like it will be another WINNER! THANK you. I look so forward to your instant pot cooking. 👍👍
Just made your recipe... OH MY GOD! This is by far the best cheesecake that I have ever had! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. P. S. the cream cheese topping is one of the things that made this so delicious, don't leave it out.
Just made it and gotta say, it is more the "delicious!" it is downright AMAZING! Even though I substituted xylitol for the sugar in the batter and liquid stevia in the topping, and left out the crust, that was the most incredibly delicious cheesecake I've ever had...and I LOVE cheesecake.
Love that you took the time to explain the pot settings. I’m using my Instant Pot for the first time tomorrow, and making this. Your video is the only one I could find that showed leaving the setting on normal! I went through so many videos trying to figure out where to set it! Thank you!
My dad made this the other night and we just tried it! SOOOO GOOD! Thank you for posting this! Now we have to decide which of your other cheesecakes we will try next ☺️
I had never made a cake of any kind ever before until now. I admit I was skeptical and even more afraid to taste it even if I followed every step thoroughly. You made this so easy to follow and it came out delicious! Thank you for sharing it. I will come back to this video again and again.
I did this same cake twice but I changed a few things second time around. Added 2 tsp of flour, separated the egg yokes and whipped the whites w/a 1/4 tsp of cream of tartar and folded them into the batter and added 4 minutes to the cook time perfection
That was our kitchen phone while I grew up. Yellow rotary wall phone. Please never let it go. Also your cheesecake looks amazing! Gonna have to try it!
This recipe is easy and delicious! My wife isn’t a fan of cheesecake but she complained the one day we didn’t have any left, so I’m making my second one today!
I had the exact phone hanging in my family kitchen when I was growing up. I can remember my mom standing at the stove, talking away on the phone while cooking, with the cord stretched clear across the kitchen as she made dinner and caught up on local gossip with her friends. When I’d find her in this situation, I’d always pretend to need something from the fridge, then the sink, and then maybe a drawer on the other side of the kitchen, and no time I’d be hopelessly tangled up in that unwieldy cord. At that point Mom would look at me with a bit of a glare and I would have to do a little dance to get both of us free of the damn thing. She‘d have a scowl on her face for having interrupted her phone conversation, but it was always eventually outshined by the grin she‘d have for the little twists and turns she added just for fun as we worked out the choreography needed to get me free of the cord and out of her hair! Very fun memories!
My boyfriend’s favorite dessert is cheesecake. Thank you for making me the hero! 😋 We’re getting cheesecake wasted thanks to you! Fantastic recipe. And kudos to you for quality time with your sons. Thanks again. 😌
I’ve made this several times with rave reviews! Right now I have another in the InstaPot with my own modifications: Made the crust with Vanilla wafers and added 1/4 c of shredded coconut. I also I added 1/4 c of candied pineapple that was diced and then soaked in Rum extract for an hour, along with 2 tsp of Pineapple extract. Finally, I used 1 c of sour cream with 1/2 c of coconut and a tsp of coconut extract, and kept the sugar at 1/4 c.
Made this recipe for Valentine’s Day. It was my first Instant pot cheesecake but it won’t be the last. Your video is fun, easy to follow, and most importantly, the recipe just works. Thank you so much for doing this. Subscribed and sharing to friends and family. P.S. your kids are an awesome addition to your video. Loving the family vibe!
I just made this cheesecake - OMG! - it's delicious!!!! Love this website. He so easy going and his instructions are clear and easy. He's definitely on my Favorites List
I have made this cheesecake recipe several times as well as the Key lime. They were both delicious as well as a big hit with everyone. Thank you so much. Looking forward to making the pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving.
Before this video, I had neither a cheesecake pan or a trivet for my instant pot (i don't have the name brand). Now thanks to Amazon, I will have them on Sunday. I will have the ingredients at the ready to try it out. Can hardly wait.
This has to be one of the best cooking videos I've yet seen. It's great on several levels: it's simple. It looks like something even I could make. It contains ingredients I love. About 90% of the time and effort consists of letting the cake sit in the refrigerator, a task that even I probably can't screw up. Your camerawork, lighting, and presentation are all first rate. And including your fine-looking boys in the video was the crowning touch. Our kids have long since grown up and gone, and I envied you very much. Congratulations on a superb video!
This is a great cheesecake, however I added 2 minutes to the baking time and I used a blender. I’ve made it 3 times this holiday season. Thanks for this recipe ❤❤❤
Used your recipe and it was great!!! Made a pineapple topping using crushed pineapple sugar and cornstarch. Made the cheesecake even better. Thanks so much
hi there, I am watching from Taiwan~ Daddies here dont cook, so its great to see a dad making cheesecake for his kid👍way to go !😄
Great to see a Dad cooking with his son and teaching him some life skills.
This is a great recipe! I have made it a couple of times. I recently made it into a Tiramisu cheesecake by adding kahlua / espresso dipped lady fingers at the bottom and middle. I also added a little kahlua to the batter and swapped out 8 ounces of cream cheese for mascarpone. Delicious!
Leslie I'm salivating at your Tiramisu Cheesecake recipe idea 😋💞 Did you DIY ladyfingers or store-bought?
OMG
Mad compliments. Made this today and everyone thought I had just decorated a store bought cake. I made it in the oven in a 9 in springform pan as I had nothing that fit in my instantpot. Baked at 350 for 15 minutes then at 200 for 1 hour, 20 minutes and she turned out perfect. Thanks so much for the recipe!
Thx, Christine! I will be making mine in the oven, too, and you provided exactly what I needed to know.
Christine Sherring I was waiting to read directions for the oven!
Christine Sherring you’re the best! Lol
Did you use all of the 7 cream cheese packages in a 9 in pan?
Cristina Sherring
Eso quería saber, muchas gracias , me has salvado , lo are muy pronto , gracias 🙂⚘🇲🇽

I just like seeing a dad cook with his kids
I agree. What a sweet, close family.
It happens more often than you think.
and not the cheesecake?
I just like cheesecake and don't care who is making it. LOL Wish I could eat it too!!
My kids DAD never cooked with our kids 😿
I make this sugar free. It comes out great! You can’t tell the difference! For the crust I use sugar free shortbread cookies and the butter. I substitute the sugar in the batter with swerve (or monk fruit sweetener) and use fruit on top. It’s wonderful.

Thank you
I did the same thing.
i just did the same thing as well. i've never baked any kind of dessert ever before
i even did the eggs correctly and it didn't collapse at all, came out looking very similar to what i saw in the video
I’m about to try just because of this comment . I’ve never baked before I love cheesecake wish me luck
I did the same thing. I watched it several times before I fixed it. Actually watched his first version of it and then found this one where he made it a little different. Its so good
Best cheesecake and fastest explanation in the world. The "improvement" in the recipe took this cheesecake to an even higher level.
It is nice to come back here after a few years and see your boys again, my gosh how they have grown!
I have viewed this UA-cam video several times over the past several months. I decided to take my instapot on vacation with me and try it out. I purchased the ingredients and started my cheese cake in the early morning. (Not that I figured I would need the whole day). I mixed the ingredients and set up the instapot. After cook time and DE pressuring time, I unsealed the lid and noticed that the top of the cheesecake was a small pool of water, as well on the edges.

I did not follow up with mixing the topping. I planned use a cherry topping (canned) and a dash of whip cream.

I just made my 2nd one today💪🏾. Have you made yours yet?
I just made it this morning and followed directions to a tee. Let it sit for 8hrs in fridge. This is a terrific recipe. Taste better than Outback's cheesecake. I will be looking forward to making this for Thanksgiving. Thank you.
This is the only cheesecake i make now. I've made this probably about 25 times since your first video. The brown sugar in the crust has the best flavor. This cake is creamy and delicious. Thanks so much for sharing.

I love that you really don't have to cover it! I have to say...I've loved every one of the videos I've watched by you and your sons. You are all so delightful! I'm a granny of 11 and Great granny of 7. Can't wait to show some of them a video or two of yours. I know they'll enjoy it very much. Super family you have...excellent relationship with those boys. My youngest daughter has two boys ages 9 and 13. Look to be close to the ages of your boys. I'm going to share this video with them! Thanks for sharing.
Once again, this is a great place to start, with my own modifications. I added 3/4 c of creamy peanut butter and an additional egg, plus a tsp of butter flavoring. Cooked for 32 minutes. Perfect! Then, for the topping, I added 2/3 c of raspberry preserves to the sour cream & sugar. Yum!!!
THANK YOU once more!!
This cheesecake turned out amazing. I have bad luck with trying to get cakes to congeal in the fridge, so I just plopped it in the freezer for a few hours, still on the parchment paper. Zero trouble getting it off, and it tastes exquisite. Thank you!!
Did it...followed exactly...EXCEPT I bounced it on the countertop 4-5 times, to get any bubbles out, IT WORKED beautifully! This is the best I've ever had, and looks so professional!
You and your son explain the directions so well! Making it so easy to follow and make yourself. I made this and it came out perfect! Everyone loved it. They thought it was from a fancy resturant. Much appreciated, thank you guys!
Just started using my Instant Pot and got adventurous -- tried this recipe and it was awesome!!!! I was never fond of cheesecake, but my husband loves it and he is a picky eater. He and I both loved it!!!! Making the Key Lime cheesecake for my daughter's birthday....keep helping us become great bakers/pressure cookers with the Instant Pot....
I make this recipe with Greek Yogurt instead of Sour Cream, and it comes out great!
Pro tips: Add 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon to the crust if you're using regular graham crackers for a warmer flavor. Add 3 dashes of orange bitters to the filling. Many cheesecake recipes call for a small amount of citrus zest to add a subtle complexity to the flavor, and this is a cheat for accomplishing the same thing. Add jam or preserves to the topping, and cut down the sugar to 1/3 for a flavored topping.
I made 4 of these last year, from watching your video. Even froze 2 of them. My family loves them. Will be making more this month for the holiday season. Thank you for sharing and for the simple easy, and well given directions!
I’ve made this cheesecake several times and it’s absolutely delicious. My 2 year old granddaughter now asks for cheesecake every time she comes to our house. I made this at Christmas this year and it was just the right size to have in the dessert selection. We love it and I’ll be making this many, many more times.
made this today for the second time, always a success. I add around 2 tsp of lemon juice to the mix as well, gives more of that tart edgy funk taste to the NY cheesecake.
legend, thank you .
I got an Instant Pot for Christmas and have been making your cheesecakes ever since and this one is delicious! I’ve made a couple changes because my pan is 7”, so I use 12 graham crackers for the crust and an extra tablespoon of butter. I put the graham crackers in a big zip lock bag and crush the crackers with a rolling pin. My pan is too big for the rack that came with the IP so I got another small one that doesn’t have handles (they are what get in the way). I also make a long strip of aluminum foil to lift the pan in and out of the pot. Other things I do, I get the ingredients room temperature before I start and I sift the corn starch otherwise it gets lumpy. Thanks for your videos, they are awesome and I love how you cook and make videos with your boys!
Amazon had no 6x3 Fat Daddy O pan you described. I found one that size but another brand. My Instant Pot is a 3 Qt Mini Duo. Is the time of 28 minutes the same in the Mini Duo?
Did you increase the quantity of the filling as well?
I made this using the old video ( 26 minutes) and it was EXCELLENT, but the center was a little soft, and I thought a couple extra minutes would help. Well, Bamm I see you upped it. Seriously, Great easy REAL cheesecake. Thank you! I have shared this with a bunch of people.
I just made this cheesecake, and it so good, my godmother couldn't believe I made it in a pressure cooker, she said is better than the restaurants.
This is hands down THE BEST homemade cheesecake recipe. My favorite cheesecake had always been the Costco cheesecake, and this tastes just like it except It’s a reasonable size. Thank you for sharing it!
I could NEVER make a cheesecake without it cracking and being dry. I"ll never make any other recipe. This was the best cheesecake I have ever made! A HUGE THANK YOU from a cheesecake fan. My family loved it! Made the Chocolate Malt too and it was divine!
Me too. Made it yesterday. Incredible and so easy in the IP.
I watched and researched at least 20 recipes. This one is the best. No frills just a great creamy cheese cake. Thanks for recipe. I didn’t even make 2 hours never mind 4. It will be finished within 8! Beautiful family.
I made my first one tonight, according to your recipe, but it a 7” spring form, at 35 minutes, because it’s a little bigger than your 6”. It’s got a very slight brown edge around the top, makes it look authentic to me. It will be tomorrow before I can tell you how it really turned out.
So…it's been three years. How did it turn out?
I tried your recipe and you're right. People should wait overnight/ 24 hours. It was so much better the next day.
I tried this....I’ve never made one before. I didn’t even taste it-I’m not a cheesecake fan-but the person I gave it to said it was the best he ever had:). The only thing I did different was use a hand mixer and let it chill for 24 hours....
I’m really impressed with this video. Not only does the cheesecake look terrific, but the chef is using the exact instant pot that I have. I can’t wait to try this!
Cheesecake Daddy; Even after using the wrong pan, off brand cream cheese, and not having a wire whisk, the cheesecake turned out great! Thanks to you (and your tribe) for such a great recipe!!
Time in the fridge definitely makes a difference in taste and texture. I tried it at 4, 8, and overnight (12 hours). Hands down overnight is the best.
Here from facebook, hearing the voice I thought 'oh this reminds me of the guy cooking with his cute son' and then was delighted to hear that same voice again - you go dad!
Thank you :) :)
I bought the insta pot and made sure to buy the cake pan just because of your video. You and your boys are true salesmen. I love this video and can’t wait to try your recipe. Thank you for sharing with us. I wish you and the boys many blessings. 😊
OK so I’ve seen this recipe in the past and I saved it. So today I finally decided to make it since I’ve been having a craving for cheesecake. I don’t have an instant pot but I do have a power cooker XL pressure cooker and the settings are somewhat different than the instant pot. I went with my gut and I used the rice setting and I put it at the max minute which was 25 minutes and once it stopped I put a timer for the 10 minute pressure release but mine released before the 10 minutes. So I decided to leave the lid closed for an additional 10 to 15 minutes and when I took mine out it was perfect. I ended up using Nilla wafers for my crust and used 2 tsp white sugar since I didn’t want anything too sweet. I didn’t use the sour cream topping because I’m not a fan of it. But the cheesecake in itself was delicious. I would however next time pass the mixture through a sift to get out any cream cheese curdles that haven’t blended well. Thank you for sharing your cheesecake recipe. I will definitely keep this in my favorites from now on.
Cool! I will try rice cooking program too for my baking next time, thanks for sharing!
I made this cheese cake 2 days ago and i never made a cheese cake ever before and WOW I WAS SO IMPRESSED with this cake it blows my mind......so so FANTASTIC.....and i love your video with your children so fun to watch keep up the great work thank you
I love that you cook with your son. Great memories!
Made this for first time in my Instant Pot. Used a spring form pan. It came out perfect and is delicious! The topping really adds flavor and it made the cake pretty. Thanks for posting. The video really helped.
I just purchased the pan on Amazon and as soon as it arrives I am making this cheesecake!!!
I can't wait for my hubby to taste it! Thank you for sharing! 😁
I got me instent pot a week ago. I made 3 of these cheese cakes . And share two cheese cake with relatives. This cheese cake is delicious! And easy to make . I got friends and family on Facebook I share this video to . Some want know how bake it in regular oven. I will make this cheese cake again. . Thank you for sharing your recipe .God bless you .
Best ever! Thanks for all of your talent and skill... Your camera man and his comments are always appreciated.
I bet that young man is going to have all kinds of girl friends. A man that helps to cook is worth his weight in gold. It is so nice to have a guy cook or bake for you.
I just made this cheesecake again and this time I served it to my kids and my grandchildren at dinner. Everybody thought it was the best cheesecake in the world! Thanks again for a great recipe and a great video!
Extra points for the old school land line on the wall behind you.
You know, I've tried several recipes for this, the infamous #17 and others. I keep coming back to your videos though. Like this new one, making great NY Cheesecake and memories with the fam!
Thanks for sharing
2nd time making it. This is a great recipe. It's nice to see a kind, patient Dad. You are a hero! Keep up the great work. Your children are going to be amazing adults. Thank you!
This is the best cheesecake I ever made and I learned from a chef. It was so good that I didn’t believe it - so I’m making another one just to be sure! Love the video with the kids.
I made this. Loved it! Had to do a few adaptations. My instant pot is an 8 qt. My smallest cheesecake springform is an 8". I only use raw sugar. I didn't have any sour cream on hand, so I substituted yogurt & some melted butter. But it turned out Great! Ghirardelli Chocolate sauce instead of the sweetened sour cream topping. Excellent texture. Big Hit!!! 😋😋😋
Made this and loved it! I used half the graham cracker crust recipe, as we're not fans of the thicker crusts, and it worked great. Good job. The video is entertaining as well - kudos on bringing the family into the production, and giving your son a chance to shine.
Tried it... loved it. It is ABSOLUTELY better after being refrigerated overnight because it gets "denser" with time. The only change I'll make next time is to halve the graham cracker crust amount because not all the batter fit into my 6 x 2.75 inch pan with that much crust. I know you used a 6x3, but figured mine would be big enough since we were not using the topping. Also, I used half sucralose artificial sweetener and we thought the sweetness was still perfect. BTW... I used the mini, 3qt insta-pot. Thanks for the recipe.
I made this! One thing I learned is the cream cheese has to be really warm and soft. I left mine out on the counter to soften like I would with butter, but it was still too cold. It was very difficult to incorporate it into the batter without lumps. Still turned out ok, but next time I will definitely make sure it's completely room temperature.
OMG. I am 67 years old and this was the best cheesecake I have ever tasted! Well done! Now I never have to buy another cheesecake. My wife wants me to look for an instant pot pumpkin cheesecake. LOL
Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake ~ 1st Place Winner !!! ua-cam.com/video/XZx4s1pfGMA/v-deo.html
I am from Liverpool in England and I've only just bought an instant pot made your yesterday angry had it 4RT absolutely well done it's the best cheesecake me and my husband I've never had x
This guy freed my baking self-up so much, because I'm not that coordinated and he showed me that you can cram all those ingredients together, stir the crap out of them and bake. His instructions are great, and he simplifies it so much it's fun. See and nobody cares... lololol.
I didn’t believe it BUT it’s true. This is the best cheesecake ever!!!! Better than Junior’s in NYC. Bravo!!
This is a GREAT recipe to start with … I made a variation again. This time I used 18 Oreo cookies with 1 tbl of dried orange peel for the crust. For the filling, I used 1-1/2 large [14 ox] cans of mandarin oranges that were “puréed” in a blender, then drained, along with 2 Tbl of orange peel and 2 Tbl of orange extract … since it made it a little juicier, I added one egg and cooked for 33 minutes. [Perfect!]. For the topping, I added another Tbl of both orange peel and orange extract. Turned out great!
Thanks for the great ‘started’ recipe … I’m sure I’ll be using it again and again! 👍👍
Instant pot came Tuesday. Pan 10 stops away. Starting recipe now. See...can’t wait to try this. 😋
Update: ok, so we made this. We forgot the cornstarch and over whipped a bit. It was still amazing. It turned out fluffy instead of dense. Oh, well. We need to make another one😉😋.
I just made this; I didn't forget the cornstarch, but it came out fluffy anyway. Still tastes good, though. Anyone who wants a sweeter cheesecake might want to add a little more sugar, but I thought it was very good as is.
Yeah Baby!! The easiest to follow recipe with the most clear directions ever. Your accomplices are awesome, what a great dad you are... thank you for sharing the recipe and a slice of your family life. Namaste.
Barely a minute in and I'm already intrigued; you just ripped off the liner paper, tucked it in and voila! I would've struggled with that thing, traced it out on the paper with a pencil (after looking for that and the scissors ) cut it out, struggling the whole time to keep the paper straight. Good job! 😄👍🏼
Tamara Morton Me too! We must both be firstborns! Lol
Gypsy Woman How'd you know? I need to read up on birth order personality tendencies.
I make cheesecakes often! I’ve cut a reusable non stick baking sheet after marking it with a pen, with the bottom on top of the sheet.
I also use a lid from my pot-in-pot so that I don’t need to remove any steam water on top when it’s cooked. Perfect for when storing it in the fridge too. 😃
Thanks Twin Cities Adventures for all the yummy recipes! My favorite so far is the Nutella-one😃🌷
@@UllisSvenssonErkers I like the way you think.
I don’t use the parchment paper just some Pam
YOU. ARE. FLIPPING AMAZING! You are the king of fun, easy and uncomplicated recipes and techniques. New sub. Thank you! Samuel is so handsome and will be a total catch someday with all the culinary skills he’s learning from Dad. Ladies love a guy who knows his way around a kitchen! Thank you again!
This is the best cheesecake ever. Homemade or store bought, this is the one.
Thank you
OMG, this is FANTASTIC!!! I made this and it’s the first time I’ve ever made cheesecake. I had to have my husband’s help with the batter because I’m not strong enough to beat it with the whisk. Next time I’m going to use a mixer. Thanks for your excellent recipe and demonstration!
Literally the best cheesecake recipe out there! Love it!
I made this cc last night and was honestly blown away how good it turned out. Thanks for sharing!!👍🏻 Don’t deprive yourself of this decadent treat.
I didn't think you could ever improve the first one you showed, it was so perfect!
I will have to try this one. Looks like it will be another WINNER! THANK you. I look so forward to your instant pot cooking. 👍👍
:)
Hope Samuel is doing great! I love this cheesecake recipe thank you sooo much guys! Enjoying from south florida
Just made your recipe... OH MY GOD! This is by far the best cheesecake that I have ever had! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. P. S. the cream cheese topping is one of the things that made this so delicious, don't leave it out.
I've been making cheesecakes following this recipe for the last two years and every time, it's amazing! Thank you for this video!
Just made it and gotta say, it is more the "delicious!" it is downright AMAZING! Even though I substituted xylitol for the sugar in the batter and liquid stevia in the topping, and left out the crust, that was the most incredibly delicious cheesecake I've ever had...and I LOVE cheesecake.
Love that you took the time to explain the pot settings. I’m using my Instant Pot for the first time tomorrow, and making this. Your video is the only one I could find that showed leaving the setting on normal! I went through so many videos trying to figure out where to set it! Thank you!
My dad made this the other night and we just tried it! SOOOO GOOD! Thank you for posting this! Now we have to decide which of your other cheesecakes we will try next ☺️
I had never made a cake of any kind ever before until now. I admit I was skeptical and even more afraid to taste it even if I followed every step thoroughly. You made this so easy to follow and it came out delicious! Thank you for sharing it. I will come back to this video again and again.
Made this yesterday and dug into earlier today... the whole family loved it! 10/10
Thank you so much I can't wait to try. My son birthday is next week. Perfect time.
Made this Sunday & it Tuesday and I'm making it again. The best cheesecake ever! Thanks for the recipe!
I did this same cake twice but I changed a few things second time around. Added 2 tsp of flour, separated the egg yokes and whipped the whites w/a 1/4 tsp of cream of tartar and folded them into the batter and added 4 minutes to the cook time perfection
That was our kitchen phone while I grew up. Yellow rotary wall phone. Please never let it go.
Also your cheesecake looks amazing! Gonna have to try it!
This recipe is easy and delicious! My wife isn’t a fan of cheesecake but she complained the one day we didn’t have any left, so I’m making my second one today!
I had the exact phone hanging in my family kitchen when I was growing up. I can remember my mom standing at the stove, talking away on the phone while cooking, with the cord stretched clear across the kitchen as she made dinner and caught up on local gossip with her friends. When I’d find her in this situation, I’d always pretend to need something from the fridge, then the sink, and then maybe a drawer on the other side of the kitchen, and no time I’d be hopelessly tangled up in that unwieldy cord. At that point Mom would look at me with a bit of a glare and I would have to do a little dance to get both of us free of the damn thing. She‘d have a scowl on her face for having interrupted her phone conversation, but it was always eventually outshined by the grin she‘d have for the little twists and turns she added just for fun as we worked out the choreography needed to get me free of the cord and out of her hair! Very fun memories!
My boyfriend’s favorite dessert is cheesecake. Thank you for making me the hero! 😋 We’re getting cheesecake wasted thanks to you! Fantastic recipe. And kudos to you for quality time with your sons. Thanks again. 😌
Sam has a very steady hand with the camera. Great job can’t wait to try
I’ve made this several times with rave reviews! Right now I have another in the InstaPot with my own modifications: Made the crust with Vanilla wafers and added 1/4 c of shredded coconut. I also I added 1/4 c of candied pineapple that was diced and then soaked in Rum extract for an hour, along with 2 tsp of Pineapple extract. Finally, I used 1 c of sour cream with 1/2 c of coconut and a tsp of coconut extract, and kept the sugar at 1/4 c.
That sounds awesome
!
Made this recipe for Valentine’s Day. It was my first Instant pot cheesecake but it won’t be the last. Your video is fun, easy to follow, and most importantly, the recipe just works. Thank you so much for doing this. Subscribed and sharing to friends and family. P.S. your kids are an awesome addition to your video. Loving the family vibe!
I just made this cheesecake - OMG! - it's delicious!!!! Love this website. He so easy going and his instructions are clear and easy. He's definitely on my Favorites List
This cheesecake is so good I had to make it 4 times in two weeks for my family.
Awesome, Thanks for the feedback :)
I'm back again to refresh my memory, because it's been awhile since I made your cheesecake recipe. Always comes out great. Thanks again.
I have made this cheesecake recipe several times as well as the Key lime. They were both delicious as well as a big hit with everyone. Thank you so much. Looking forward to making the pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving.
Before this video, I had neither a cheesecake pan or a trivet for my instant pot (i don't have the name brand). Now thanks to Amazon, I will have them on Sunday. I will have the ingredients at the ready to try it out. Can hardly wait.
This has to be one of the best cooking videos I've yet seen. It's great on several levels: it's simple. It looks like something even I could make. It contains ingredients I love. About 90% of the time and effort consists of letting the cake sit in the refrigerator, a task that even I probably can't screw up. Your camerawork, lighting, and presentation are all first rate. And including your fine-looking boys in the video was the crowning touch. Our kids have long since grown up and gone, and I envied you very much. Congratulations on a superb video!
Thank you
This is a great cheesecake, however I added 2 minutes to the baking time and I used a blender. I’ve made it 3 times this holiday season. Thanks for this recipe ❤❤❤
I love you guys and your taste test at the end lol What a great dad to get your kids involved.
Used your recipe and it was great!!! Made a pineapple topping using crushed pineapple sugar and cornstarch. Made the cheesecake even better. Thanks so much
