How to Make Amarula Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a 10-inch springform pan with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs and ¼ cup melted unsalted butter. Mix until moist.
- Press crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in 8 ounces mascarpone cheese until well combined.
- Add 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and ¼ cup Amarula cream liqueur.
- Pour batter into the prepared crust. Drizzle ½ cup caramel topping over the batter.
- Using a toothpick, gently swirl the caramel into the cheesecake batter.
- Wrap the bottom and sides of the springform pan tightly with aluminum foil.
- Place the pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
- Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are golden brown. The cheesecake should spring back slightly when gently touched but still have a slight wobble in the center.
- Insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs attached but not wet batter.
- Remove from water bath and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving.
- Serve chilled with your favorite toppings, such as chocolate sauce, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
