Directions
Red Pepper Jelly Cheesecake, This has a really different flavor and texture from the average cheddar spread You can dress it up by putting kale or lettuce around the edges on a plate, and clusters of grapes on the lettuce, I made this for a bridal shower and it was a definite hit! Got a lot of compliments from guests Very easy – I didn’t even need a mixer; after softening the cream cheese slightly in the microwave, it was easy to mix by hand used finely shredded cheddar as I thought it might incorporate better I also halved the recipe but used 4 oz jelly in the cheesecake and just a little on top Used a 7 inch springform (that’s what I had) and baked for 35 minutes Soooo tasty – I was happy there was a smidge left to take home with me! Thanks so much for the recipe! – Aug 13, 2006 Update: Made this again for a church gathering and again halved in a 7-inch pan This time, I could only find (green) jalapeno jelly, which worked just fine used 3 oz jelly in the cheesecake and just a little on top Thanks again for the recipe!, This was pretty good! I made it for a baby shower and it was enjoyed I think I added too much pepper jelly to the cheesecake mixture because I had to cook longer than 45 minutes to get the center set and the top was a bit brown for my liking However, it tasted good and I’ll definitely try it again
