Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces vanilla wafers
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 3 ounces orange Jello
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of one orange

Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • 9-inch Springform Pan
  • Hand-held Mixer

Method
 

  1. Pulse vanilla wafers in a food processor until they resemble crumbs. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and melted butter, pulsing to combine.
  2. Generously spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the pan and slightly up the sides. Chill in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and 1 cup granulated sugar with a hand-held mixer until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together orange Jello and boiling water until dissolved. Set aside.
  5. In another medium bowl, whip heavy cream, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and orange zest until stiff peaks form.
  6. Divide the whipped cream mixture in half. Combine one half with the orange Jello mixture and the other half with the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Alternate spreading each mixture into the pan, starting with the cream cheese mixture and ending with the whipped cream.
  8. Chill the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
