To make this Eggnog Eggnog Swirl Cheesecake, you will need the following ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
- 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup eggnog
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the eggnog swirl:
- 1/2 cup eggnog
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
To begin, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well and press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Add the eggnog, eggs, vanilla extract, and nutmeg, and beat until well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust.
In a small saucepan, whisk together the eggnog, sugar, cornstarch, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
Using a spoon, drop dollops of the eggnog mixture onto the cheesecake filling. Use a knife to swirl the eggnog mixture into the cheesecake filling.
Bake the cheesecake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving.
