Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 8 oz graham crackers
  • ½ cup butter, melted

Filling

  • 24 ounces cream cheese, softened (38 ounce packages)
  • ½ cup whipped cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lavender syrup
  • 35 drops purple food coloring

Garnish

  • Whipped topping
  • Dry lavender

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until they are crushed into fine crumbs. Combine the crumbs with melted butter and mix thoroughly. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan or a 9-inch pie plate if a springform pan is unavailable. Refrigerate the crust for about 30 minutes to set.
  2. Make the Filling: In a large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, whipped cream, and powdered sugar. Using an electric mixer, blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Add the lavender syrup and purple food coloring, then beat the mixture for an additional two minutes to incorporate the flavors evenly.
  3. Chill the Cheesecake: Remove the crust from the refrigerator and pour the prepared filling over it, spreading it evenly. Cover the pan and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours until the cheesecake is firm and set. Before serving, garnish the cheesecake with whipped topping and dry lavender for a beautiful finish.

Notes

  • The crust can be made in a 9-inch pie plate if you do not have an 8-inch springform pan.
  • Adjust the amount of purple food coloring to achieve your desired shade.
  • For best results, use full-fat cream cheese and freshly whipped cream.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing for a smoother filling.
  • This cheesecake should be kept refrigerated and consumed within 3 days.
