Tips And Tricks To Nail This Purple Cheesecake

Think you’re ready to give this recipe a try? Here are some more tips and tricks you might want to take note of to nail the lavender cheesecake recipe.

  • Remember to start off with softened cream cheese. It is ideally best to leave the cream cheese at room temperature for a couple hours before you use it for this recipe.
  • If you’re making whipped cream from scratch, start with chilled heavy cream or whipping cream.
  • You can also add a dash of vanilla extract into the mix to enhance the flavor of the cheesecake.
  • To bring some tanginess to the cheesecake, you can also add sour cream.
  • To add a bit of texture and some luxurious elements to the cheesecake, you can also add some culinary lavender buds into the mixture, and on the top of the cheesecake.
  • Before adding the crumb mixture into the pan, make sure you grease the pan with some butter.

Variations

  • Lavender Honey Cheesecake: Infuse the cheesecake batter with both dried culinary lavender and a touch of honey. The floral notes of lavender combined with the sweetness of honey create a delicate and sophisticated flavor profile.
  • Lemon Lavender Cheesecake: Add lemon zest and a splash of lemon juice to the cheesecake batter along with the dried lavender. The bright citrus flavor pairs beautifully with the floral lavender, creating a refreshing and vibrant cheesecake.
  • Blueberry Lavender Cheesecake: Swirl homemade blueberry compote into the cheesecake batter before baking. The sweet-tart flavor of blueberries complements the floral notes of lavender, creating a visually stunning and delicious cheesecake.

How To Store Lavender Cheesecake

  • Fridge: To get this no bake cheesecake to hold its shape when you cut it, I would recommend you refrigerate overnight to allow it to set well. You can refrigerate your leftovers for up to 3 days- just make sure you cover the cheesecake well, and use a sharp knife to cut through it and serve it.

What To Serve With Lavender Cheesecake

  • Hot Chocolate: Serve a rich and creamy hot chocolate on the side. The warmth and indulgence of the hot chocolate will contrast nicely with the cool and creamy cheesecake.
  • Butterfly Pea Lemonade: This vibrant and refreshing lemonade not only complements the floral notes of the lavender cheesecake but also adds a pop of color to the spread. The citrusy tang of the lemonade balances the richness of the cheesecake.
