Ingredients

Vanilla Wafer Crust

  • 2 ¼ cups vanilla wafer cookie crumbs
  • ¼ cup brown sugar {lightly packed}
  • cup butter {melted}

Vanilla Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 ounces cream cheese {softened}
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 ounces whipped topping
  • 1 ½ teapsoons vanilla bean paste

Toppings

  • 4 ounces whipped topping
  • 1 cup fresh fruit

Instructions

Vanilla Wafer Crust

  • Pulse the vanilla wafers into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender. {If you don't have a food processor or blender then add cookies to a zipper bag and crush with a rolling pin} Mix together vanilla wafer crumbs, brown sugar and melted butter, stir until crumbs are completely coated.  Pour crumbs into a lightly greased 9" spring form pan and press into the bottom and partially up the sides of the pan.  Refrigerate the crust until the filling is prepared.

Vanilla Cheesecake Filling

  • In a mixing bowl, beat {using a hand held or stand mixer} cream cheese until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk and continue to mix until combined and smooth. Finally, add whipped topping and vanilla bean paste to the mixture and gently mix {fold in using a rubber spatula}. Add cheesecake mixture into prepared vanilla wafer crust, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
  • To serve, add whipped topping to a piping bag with a star tip {or a zipper bag} and pipe the whipped topping around the edge of the cheesecake. Go back and place fresh fruit {or whatever filling you choose} around the edge of the cheesecake. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator covered tightly for 3-4 days.

Notes

Topping ideas:
  • Fresh Fruit-I think a combination of whatever is in season works best.  Summer-Peaches, berries or fresh cherries would all be delicious.  Fall-Apples, figs and cranberries are all ripe and beautiful.  Winter-Pomegranate seeds, Star fruit and Kiwi would be a gorgeous combination.  Spring-Pineapple, Mango and Strawberry would be wonderful.
  • Caramel Sauce-salted or unsalted versions would be amazing!
  • Nuts-Pecans, almonds, pistachios or a combination would work great on this cheesecake.
  • Chocolate-Melt and drizzle over the top or add your favorite candies.
