Directions :
Follow the steps in the given sequence to ensure a perfectly cooked cheesecake that would not only look good but taste extraordinary.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Then grease a 9-inch springform pan. Start by making the crust. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter and press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes then set aside to cool.
Next, prepare the cheesecake filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Then, add in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
Now, prepare the peach cobbler topping. In a bowl, toss peaches with brown sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Spread this evenly over the cheesecake filling.
Bake the cheesecake at 325°F (163°C) for 45-50 minutes until the center is set and slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, slightly open the door, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 30 minutes. Then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible.
Lastly, serve the chilled cheesecake straight from the refrigerator. Slice and serve.
