    I'm going to brag. I make really good cheese cake. I also swear, that the spring form pan I finally purchased, was part of the reason my cheese cakes turn out so good. Your cheese cake looks like a huge winner, and since I have never made one with raspberry swirls, I will have to try it. I just finished making an apple pie, so the cheese cake is on hold until later this week, but I know that this one has to be delicious. Thank you for the tip about what form of raspberry to use. I sure hope my local store will sell me some from the bakery. Raspberry mm mm mm.

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      I cut the sugar down from the original recipe so it's not overly sweet. It had called for 1-1/4 cups of sugar which was just too over the top. 2/3rd's of a cup is perfect. And that tip from ATK is a lifesaver!! A brilliant idea that never fails but still works.

    A new subscriber here. You have many wonderful recipes and fun ideas for the holidays. I can't imagine any professional bakery doing a better job with this cheesecake.
    Hope this is not nervy on my part, but I make a raspberry dessert for which I gently warm a jar of raspberry preserves in the microwave. I then press the warmed preserves through a fine sieve and use the remaining jam for the dessert. I could see this working well for your incredible cheesecake.

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      Welcome! Glad to have you on board! And yep, strained preserves would work just fine in this. I was actually considering that before getting the idea to use the doughnut filling. I figured the pie filling would be the same but I was wrong. VERY wrong, LOL!!

    This looks perfect for Valentines day :) I'm a little nervous about the water bath though. I've never used that method.

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      Don't be nervous using a water bath. The worst part is getting the boiling water into the roaster but after that, it stays in the oven until it's cool. As long as you use a cake pan instead of the traditional foil technique, you'll be perfectly safe.

  • @popparoc46
    @popparoc46 11 років тому +1

    It looks delectable. Seriously. But, I hear you when you said the raspberries were full of seeds. That would not be good, especially after all that scraping of the bowl for a nicely mixed batter! Very very nice, Jason. - roc

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      Thanks Roc! This is the 3rd time I've made this since Christmas and the first time using this pie filling. I won't be using it again. Those seeds really take away from the texture of the finished cheesecake. But live and learn!

  • @fhernachingerzwerg
    @fhernachingerzwerg 10 років тому

    I am planning to make that cake this weekend, but I have some questions:
    - Do you think it is possible to make this cake with a pot of water in the oven instead of a roaster?
    - Do you have any tips on making a pie filling from scratch? It is always tricky to bake american recipes here in Germany.
    - I only have one day to prepare the cake. Is it totally necessary to chill it over night? Are 4-5h maybe enough? Same thing with letting it sit in the oven for 3h.
    I hope you can help me, I really love your channel, you always have the best baking videos!

  • @GloriousCakeLove

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      Use can use a vanilla bean in place of the extract or if you're feeling adventurous, you can make your own vanilla extract by putting a few beans in a few ounces of vodka (cheaper the better) and letting it steep for a month or two and you've got homemade extract just like what we use here in America.

    @LilTSkater 9 років тому

    You can use aluminum foil for a water bath but it has to be the heavy duty stuff. It has to be the thick foil. Double up on that and you won't have any leaks. Standard foul gets holes in it when you wrap it around the pan. I've made a few cheesecakes and never had a water leak when using the heavy duty foil.

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      The flour is there to improve the texture a bit. You don't have to add it if you don't want to. And the eggs makes it rich and moist without using sour cream and milk or cream.

    • @croutoncrackerjacks
      @croutoncrackerjacks  11 років тому

      Nestle white 'chocolate' doesn't contain cocoa butter that real white chocolate has. It's basically almond bark for all practical purposes. The most common real white chocolate is made by Ghiradelli.

    How do I know when the cheesecake is fully cooked? Last time I made cheesecake it was completely raw in the center :(

      mccc24 You won't until it's too late. If you wait for the cheesecake to be fully cooked before turning off the heat, you're going to have overcooked, dry and tough cheesecake that has the consistency of styrofoam. As long as your oven has a correct temperature (tested with a thermometer and adjusted accordingly [keep in mind 5% of ovens are the temp they say they are]) and you are following a tested recipe, all you can do is follow the instructions and hope for the best. If you followed the recipe to a "T" last time and your cheesecake was completely raw in the center, you need to test the temp of your oven or find a better recipe to use. Cheesecake isn't for the faint of heart but if your oven is correct and the recipe is correct, it should turn out fine.

    Can you buy cookie crums instead of breaking them up yourself?
