Description

Experience the decadence of Butter Pecan Red Velvet Cheesecake! A stunning dessert that combines the rich, velvety texture of red velvet cake with creamy cheesecake, topped with buttery pecans.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 box Red Velvet Cake Mix
  • 1/2 cup Butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 oz Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Pecans, toasted and chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and red velvet cake mix until well blended. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to create a solid base.
  3. Mix the Cheesecake Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy and well combined.
  4. Fold in the Pecans: Gently fold in the toasted pecans into the cheesecake mixture.
  5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Allow it to cool before refrigerating.
  7. Chill and Serve: Let the cheesecake chill in the refrigerator for at least four hours, or overnight if possible, before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
  • Mix just until combined to avoid a dense cheesecake.
  • Consider using a water bath while baking to prevent cracks.
  • Allow the cheesecake to chill completely for the best texture.
  • Top with whipped cream or additional pecans for an impressive finish.
