Ingredients

Cheesecake Filling

  • 2 8 oz. cream cheese packages
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Crust

  • 9 graham crackers
  • 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 5 tablespoon salted butter, melted
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preparing the Cheesecake

  1. Set sous vide machine at 80C/176F.

  2. In food processor or mixer, combine cream cheese, sugar, salt, eggs and vanilla. Mix until ingredients are combined and cream cheese is softened. Scrape down sides, add in buttermilk and mix again until ingredients evenly incorporated.

  3. Pour an equal amount of cheesecake filling in each canning jar, and screw on the lid of each jar (see note). Gently submerge the entire jars in the bath using rubber tongs, and set a timer for an hour and a half.

  4. Remove from bath and let rest on counter top for 30 minutes to cool. Once cooled, transfer the cheesecake to the refrigerator for a minimum of 6 hours to set the filling. When ready to serve, garnish with the crust (recipe below) and your favorite toppings. Now enjoy these heavenly treats straight from the jar!

Preparing the Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 163/325F.

  2. In a food processor, pulse graham crackers until finely crushed. Add sugar and cinnamon and mix until ingredients are combined. Slowly pour in melted butter to mixture while pulsing. Alternatively use a bag to crush the graham crackers then stir in the sugar, cinnamon and butter by hand if you don't have a food processor!

  3. Spread mixture in an even layer on a lined cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.

  4. Remove crust mixture from oven, and set aside to cool.

Recipe Notes

  • The lid should not be put on too tight or the air pressure will not be able to release, causing the jars to shatter in the water. Try only using your fingertips when attaching the lid.
  • Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days
