Beaumont
List of Ingredients
About 1 pound fruitcake, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
3 eggs
1 2/3 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 tablespoons honey
Recipe
Butter a 9-inch springform pan and place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, eggs, sugar and vanilla until smooth.
Remove pan from refrigerator and press fruitcake slices into the bottom, forming a crust. Cut other pieces of fruitcake into shapes (stars, squares, etc.) and press onto sides of pan. Pour the cheese mixture into the pan. Use additional fruitcake shapes on top of the cheesecake if desired. Drizzle honey on top of the fruitcake.
Bake in preheated 325 degree oven for 1 hour to 1 1/4 hours, or until cracks begin to appear on cheesecake. Remove from oven, cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight before removing pan's sides.
Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.
Serves 8-10
