Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Saucepan

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 0.25 cup melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cup chopped pistachios (optional, for extra crunch)
  • 3 packages softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup pistachio paste or finely ground pistachios
  • 1 pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and chopped pistachios (if using).
  • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for about 10 minutes until golden brown.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until warm, then stir in the white chocolate chips until melted.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until fluffy, then mix in the pistachio paste, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt.
  • Slowly incorporate the melted white chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing gently to avoid air bubbles.
  • Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and tap the pan gently to release air bubbles.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes, until the center is set but still jiggles slightly.
  • Turn off the oven, leave the door ajar, and let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Before serving, garnish with chopped pistachios and white chocolate shavings.
