Ingredients:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 4 packages (8 oz each) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 package (4-serving size) vanilla instant pudding mix
- Milk (as needed for the pudding mix)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1 cup sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream, heavy cream, and instant pudding mix. Whisk until well combined and the mixture thickens slightly.
- Gently fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Pour the cream cheese and mousse mixture over the cooled crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until it is set and chilled through.
- Once set, run a knife around the edge of the pan, release the springform, and slice into wedges to serve.
- Enjoy your delicious PHILADELPHIA Vanilla Mousse Cheesecake!
