This is the BEST peanut butter cheesecake recipe out there. You can stop looking. Its creamy, peanut buttery, and if you follow the directions, the EASIEST. Perfection achievement unlocked.

In reply to Kera. Hi Kera! It can be done. You could use our recipe for mini cheesecakes as a guide :)

In reply to Janice Brightwell. Thank you so much for trusting my recipe, Janice! I'm so glad it's been such a hit! I think you could stir in some reese's cups. I'm not sure that it would change the bake time though. :)

In reply to Kary Hanson. I'm so sorry to hear this happened, Kary! Unfortunately it sounds like something may have been mis-measured and the batter was never quite right from the start. :(

I have made this recipe several times and it always turns out wonderful! I was thinking of adding one cup of chopped up Reese’s cups to the cheesecake batter. Do you think I would need to change baking time, etc. if I did this?

after 50 minutes on such a low temperature my cheesecake was still very runny. I have made literally several dozens of cheese cakes and immediately questioned the low temp and low bake time and the absences of any thicker in the recipe. I have to increase the bake time by almost 30 minutes, have cracks, still too “wabbly”, it not actually raw in the middle. the middle is definitely going to collapse on me.

I made this for my son’s 23rd birthday. The only change I made was using gluten free Oreos. My son says this is the best bday cake he’s ever had.

The ganache and homemade whipped cream were perfect and brought the cake together.

I just want to add an alternative to Oreos, since removing the cream is such a chore and the filling is just discarded.
I used Cocoa Teddy Graham crackers, a full 10oz box. Worked great!

Loved the recipe and video! Very helpful, this was my 3rd time a cheesecake, and video was helpful to watch, but I wish your video was easier to go back and forth 😢.

In reply to karen. Hi Karen! You may need a little more crust, but the bake time will just be reduced. :)

What alterations do I need to make to bake them in foil muffin tins.

In reply to Sam Merritt. I had ended up using the spare batter for a brownie cheesecake recipe :), but I baked it (the actual cheesecake) for around the same time as the full recipe and it seemed to do the trick! :)

In reply to Mik. Hi Mik! This will likely make a bit too much batter for the 6 inch pan. I'm not sure what the bake time would be.

I have a question! 🙂 Say I made this in a 6inch (2.5 inch deep) springform, would I cook it for around the same time?
