Zubereitung von Banana Nut Cheesecake
- **Crust:**
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
- **Filling:**
- In a large bowl, beat 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually beat in 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until well combined.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and ¾ cup mashed ripe bananas. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
- Place the springform pan in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Carefully run a thin knife around the edge of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan before removing the sides.
- **Topping:**
- Melt ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon unsalted butter with 1 teaspoon water in a double boiler or microwave until smooth and glossy. Stir until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cheesecake. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
