How to Make White Chocolate Ginger Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in white chocolate chips until melted and incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, ginger, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the egg mixture to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter over the cooled crust.
- Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Before serving, run a thin knife around the edges of the cheesecake to loosen it from the pan. Remove the sides of the springform pan and serve chilled.
