🔥🍮 Crème Brûlée Cheesecake

A luxury-level dessert that blends the silky richness of cheesecake with the crisp, caramelized top of a classic crème brûlée.


💫 Introduction

WARNING: This dessert may cause intense emotional reactions.

This is not your average cheesecake. And it’s not just crème brûlée.
It’s the lovechild of two timeless classics — and the result is so decadent, so creamy, and so addictive that people don’t just eat it — they remember it.

Whether you’re serving it at a dinner party, baking it for your lover, or just treating yourself because life’s too short for boring desserts — this Crème Brûlée Cheesecake will leave a mark.

And yes, it has that famous glass-like sugar crackle on top. 🔥


🛒 Ingredients

✨ For the Crust:

  • 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup melted unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp sugar

✨ For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 24 oz (680g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream (room temp)
  • 3 large eggs (room temp)
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
  • ¼ tsp salt

✨ For the Brûlée Topping:

  • 3–4 tbsp granulated sugar (for caramelizing)
  • Kitchen torch (or broiler, see method below)

👩‍🍳 Instructions & Method

Step 1: Prepare the crust

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.
  3. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

Step 2: Make the cheesecake filling

  1. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  2. Add sugar and mix until fully incorporated.
  3. Beat in sour cream, vanilla, lemon juice (if using), and salt.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each — do not overmix.

Step 3: Bake the cheesecake

  1. Pour filling over the cooled crust.
  2. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
  3. Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Fill with 1–2 inches of hot water (this is your water bath — prevents cracks).
  4. Bake for 55–70 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  5. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake sit inside for 1 hour.
  6. Remove and chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 4: The brûlée moment 🔥

  1. Just before serving, sprinkle a thin, even layer of sugar (about 1 tbsp per slice or 3–4 tbsp across the top).
  2. Use a kitchen torch to melt and caramelize the sugar until golden and crisp.
    • No torch? Use the broiler — place cheesecake under the broiler for 2–3 minutes (watch closely!).
  3. Let the sugar cool for 2 minutes before slicing — you want that glass-like crunch.

📜 History & Formation

Crème Brûlée originated in France in the 17th century, a rich custard with a torched sugar top that instantly became a favorite among royalty. Meanwhile, cheesecake has roots in ancient Greece — athletes were fed it during the Olympics!

Some culinary genius (bless them) decided to merge both into one dessert — keeping the creamy tang of cheesecake and the iconic crisp brûlée topping.

And thus, Crème Brûlée Cheesecake was born — a modern classic that bridges two dessert dynasties into one unforgettable dish.
