How to Make Stilton Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Crush 1 ½ cups of graham crackers into fine crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine crumbs with 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter until evenly moistened. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. In a large bowl, crumble 4 ounces of Stilton cheese.
  4. Add 16 ounces (2 packages) of cream cheese, softened, and ¾ cup granulated sugar to the bowl with the Stilton. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  5. Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The batter should be smooth and creamy.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  7. Gently fold in ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup sour cream, and 2 tablespoons dry vermouth or lemon juice until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Pour the cheese mixture over the prepared crust.
  9. Bake for 1 hour, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
  10. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  11. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack for at least 1 hour. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to fully set.
  12. Carefully run a thin knife around the edge of the cheesecake to loosen it from the springform pan before removing the sides just before serving.
