Ingredients:

  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp peppermint extract
  • 6 drops red food coloring
  • whipped cream and candy cane (to garnish) (optional)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and beat well. Add the sour cream and vanilla; mix well.
  3. Place 1/2 cup of the cream cheese mixture in a small bowl and stir in the peppermint extract and red food color; mix well. Pour remaining cream cheese mixture into the pie crust.
  4. Drop the peppermint mixture by spoonfuls into the mixture in the crust and swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  5. Bake cheesecake for 30-35 minutes or until edges are set (the center will be slightly loose). Allow the cake to cool for 1 hour, then cover it and chill for at least 6 hours before serving.
  6. To make it holiday-festive, garnish each slice of cheesecake with a dollop of whipped cream and a miniature candy cane.
