Southern banana pudding cheesecake

If you love banana pudding you've got to try this Southern banana pudding cheesecake! Creamy vanilla filling is layered with 'Nilla Wafers and ripe bananas, then pecans are sprinkled on top.

Red velvet cheesecake

Love red velvet? Me, too!

This unique red velvet cheesecake is one that I developed myself. It uses my delicious red velvet cake that's then crumbled into the New York cheesecake filling. The crust is also made from red velvet cake!

Reese's peanut butter cheesecake

Reese's peanut butter cheesecake has all the flavor of your favorite candy! Peanut butter filling is baked and topped with a chocolate ganache covered in chopped Reese's Peanut Butter Cups AND Reese's Pieces for the ultimate peanut butter lover's dessert!

Pumpkin Cheesecake

Pumpkin cheesecake is so perfect for fall! Pumpkin filling is baked in a gingersnap crust then topped with a bourbon caramel sauce and sprinkled with pecans.

Irish Cream cheesecake

Irish cream cheesecake is a creamy concoction is full of rich, chocolaty flavor with a hint of Irish Cream. The whole thing is covered with an Irish Cream infused chocolate ganache.

I love this one for Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day.

More cheesecake recipes from Restless Chipotle

We do love our cheesecake recipes here at Restless Chipotle. My family often asks for their favorite flavor for birthdays and other special days.

Here are more of my recipes for you to try. All of them are super creamy, dense, and crack-free!

Plain cheesecake slice with fruit.
  1. Plain Cheesecake with Fruit is that gorgeous image shown above. It's a classic New York style cheesecake that's perfect for anytime of the year with any sauce you care to put on it.
  2. Pineapple Upside Down cheesecake has the all flavor of the vintage cake with the addition of a tangy, rich filling.
  3. Woolworth's No Bake Lemon cheesecake is a pretty darn close copycat of the one that used to be served at the old Woolworth's lunch counters in the 1960s.
  4. Bananas Foster cheesecake is similar to the banana pudding cheesecake above but it's made with all the things that make Bananas Foster wonderful.
  5. Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake has a cinnamon roll crust and a cinnamon swirl filling.
  6. Cookie Dough cheesecake is for you if, like me, you can't help but sneak scoops of cookie dough out of the mixing bowl.
  7. Peanut Butter Oreo  cheesecake is so dense and creamy! Cheesecake has chunks of peanut butter Oreos and is topped with a silky chocolate ganache.
  8. Pecan Praline cheesecake has pecans stirred right in and it's made with brown sugar for the biggest praline flavor ever. A pecan praline glaze is spooned over the top.
  9. Rocky Road cheesecake is a chocolate cheesecake batter that's topped with chocolate, marshmallows, nuts and chopped Milky Way bars!
  10. Brownie Cheesecake is made with a brownie base and a rich chocolate topping.
  11. Turtle cheesecake is made with dense, New York style cheesecake filling, caramel, chocolate, and pecans.
  12. S'Mores cheesecake is made with chocolate cheesecake, graham crackers, and charred marshmallows for real S'mores flavor.
  13. Hot Buttered Rum Pecan Pie Cheesecake is one of my favorites for the holidays. A layer of rum and toffee cheesecake is baked over a pecan pie. It's a showstopper for sure.
  14. No Bake Keto Cheesecake is quick and easy! There's just 5 net carbs per serving, too!

Once you find a recipe that you love, and that works for you, it's easy to create variations.

One thing I've learned - cheesecake is expensive but don't buy inferior ingredients or your cake just won't be as good.

Tips for Perfect Cheesecake

I'm pretty sure I have shared these tips before but here they are again. Cheesecake is really easy to make, and it can be perfect every single time if  you remember these - 

  • Pre-baking your crust will keep it from getting soggy.
  • Always have all ingredients at room temperature.
  • Beat the cream cheese until it is smooth and satiny before adding the rest of your ingredients.
  • Never whip or beat the batter.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing 2 minutes or so between each.
  • ALWAYS mix ingredients at the lowest speed possible with paddles. You don't want air getting into your batter.
  • Give the pan a quick drop on the counter to release air bubbles. A small drop...don't stand on a chair or anything. Three inches is plenty.
  • Wrap the bottom of the springform pan tightly with aluminum foil so it is waterproof.
  • Use a bain marie (water bath - just put your springform in a larger pan and half fill with hot water).
  • Follow directions exactly.
  • Use the proper oven temperature.
  • Don't open the oven until it's time to take the cake out. For some recipes this may mean AFTER a resting period in the closed, turned off oven.
  • Don't over bake! It should be slightly jiggly in the middle.
  • Allow to come to room temperature before chilling overnight or at least 6 hours.
  • Place paper towel on the top before refrigerating to absorb moisture.
  • Store tightly covered and not with onions, garlic, or other strong flavors.
  • Use a good cream cheese. I like Philadelphia because it always works for me.
  • Leave the springform sides on until serving time. Then loosen the clasp slowly. If it seems to be sticking run a knife around it.

    I've definitely got to step up my game and try the baklava and gingerbread cheesecake if I'm to think I'm any good at making cheesecakes.
    Thanks for such a variety of flavours!

    Hi,
    I just want to say this looks absolutely amazing!! I will be making this for Christmas dessert this year but I do have a question. I wanted to do it as a take home treat so can I make it in small mason jars? Yes still following your directions of course. Thank you for your honest answer.

    God Bless You
