How to Make Coconut Cream Cheesecake Copycat
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Puree 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk and 1 cup heavy cream in a blender for 4 minutes until smooth.
- Set the coconut cream puree aside to cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, cut 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter into 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 4 teaspoons granulated sugar until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, beat together 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened, and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the cooled coconut cream puree.
- Slowly stir in 4 large eggs and 4 large egg yolks, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 2 ½ tablespoons coconut rum (or other liqueur), 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the batter into the prepared crust.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the sides of the cake are dry and the center is just set. (A slight jiggle is okay).
- Let the cheesecake cool completely in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes. Then, remove from oven and allow to cool completely to room temperature.
- In a small bowl, beat together 1 cup sour cream, ½ cup cream of coconut, and ½ teaspoon coconut rum (or other liqueur).
- Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the cooled cheesecake.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or preferably overnight) before serving.
- Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes over the top before serving.
- Enjoy!
