A Little Background on Great Chow and Cheesecake:

I used to run an underground cheesecake business local deli shops in the area. They would pay top dollar for my cheesecakes. The word of mouth spread so fast and demand was so great depending on the season. I just could not run it out of my home kitchen. For a while, I would take special orders and my customers really loved and appreciated my cheesecakes. I am still known as the “Cheesecake Guy” in these deli’s; it is hilarious!  I also live close to New York City and I have searched and sought out and studied the best cheesecakes available such as Brooklyn’s Juniors and World Famous Carnegie Deli so that I can experience “Real Deal Cheesecake.” Cheesecake is definitely hands down my favorite dessert and type of cake so I wanted to bring something special to you in the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker!

The cookie crumble will be applied all around the sides of the cheesecake, leftover crumbles can be served with cheesecake. The cookie halves will be used for garnish on top of the cheesecake.

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

1. Place a metal bowl in the freezer for 2 min so it gets really cold.

HOW TO MAKE COOKIE DOUGH CHEESECAKE:

1. Make cookie dough and set aside in a bowl with wax paper.

2. Make the Cheesecake filling.

3. In the 6′ Cheesecake pan;
a. Grease the insides of the pan with butter.
b. Lay down a circular sheet of wax paper and grease with butter.

4. Lay down cookie dough all around the bottom of the pan to form the cookie dough bottom crust (1/4 inch up the sides of the pan).

5. Pour Cheesecake filling on top of the cookie dough crust until it comes up to 25% of the pan. Randomly drop the cookie dough balls into the cheesecake filling. Pour more cheesecake filling until it comes up to 80% of the pan. Randomly drop the cookie dough balls into the cheesecake filling.

Tip: if the cookie dough “floats” push some of cookie dough balls down into the filling with a spoon : )

6. Lay a sheet of paper towel OVER the cheesecake pan. Cover the paper towel and cheesecake with a piece of tin foil.

Note: The paper towel will absorb the moisture during the cooking process, it is ok if it touches the cheesecake filling during the cooking process.

7. Create a tin foil sling. Tear a long piece of tin foil, fold it 3-5 times to create an even long reinforced stable sling.

Pressure cook

8. In the Instant Pot, Place trivet in the Pot, fill with 1 & 1/2 cups of water.

9. Place the covered cheesecake in the middle of the sling and place the cheesecake on the trivet, gently tuck the handles of the sling over the cheesecake.

10. lock lid in place, place pressure release in the “Seal” position

11. Press manual, Set time for 50 min.

12. When time is up; allow Natural Release until the float valve drops (15 min extra min under pressure and remove)

13. Remove lid, with hand protection remove the cheesecake to a cooling rack with the handles of the sling.

14. Remove tinfoil and the paper towel. Allow the cheesecake too cool on the cooling rack for 1 hour, and then refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours until fully chilled and formed.

Finish and Garnish

15. Remove the cheesecake from the pan by laying out a sheet of wax paper, flip the pan upside down and slowly push the bottom down until the cheesecake pops out “top-down” onto the wax paper. Then transfer and turn cheesecake “up-right” onto a serving plate.

Tip: If the cheesecake is stuck in the pan, run a dull knife around the inside of the pan, loosing up the edges, then attempt to remove the cake.

16. Make the whipped cream in a cold metal bowl (recipe above). Using a Wilton 2-D flower tip and pastry bag, fill the pastry bag with the whipped cream and pipe whipped cream on top of the cheesecake making 6 little whip cream flowers all the way around and one in the middle.

17. Place half a chocolate chip cookie in the middle of the whipped cream flower and 2 halves in the center flower.

Tips and Tricks: 

• If you want to save time and skip making cookie dough, you can use packaged cookie dough from the store.
• After the cheesecake is cooked and chilled you can simply serve the cake with a bottled chocolate drizzle and canned whip cream such as Redi-Whip (My Favorite!) if you wish.  Always delicious!!!
• Fresh fruit such as raspberries and strawberries are an excellent accompaniment to cookie dough cheesecake.
