Avocado Cheesecake

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.

2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Place it in the fridge to set while you prepare the filling.

3. In a food processor or blender, blend the avocados until smooth. Set aside.

4. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using a hand mixer or stand mixer.

5. Gradually add in the sugar and continue beating until well combined and smooth.

6. Mix in the avocado puree, vanilla extract, lime zest, and lime juice until everything is fully incorporated.

7. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

8. Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes or until the center is almost set. It's okay if it has a slight jiggle in the center.

10. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.

11. When ready to serve, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and place it on a serving plate.

12. Top with whipped cream if desired, slice, and enjoy the unique and creamy goodness of this Avocado Cheesecake!
