Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Base structure for the crust; substitute with digestive biscuits for a different flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar Adds sweetness to the crust; brown sugar can be used for a richer taste.
  • 6 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Binds the crust together; replace with coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
For the Cheesecake Filling
  • 16 ounces Cream Cheese Provides the creamy texture; use plant-based cream cheese for a vegan alternative.
  • 1 cup Sour Cream Adds tang and moisture; Greek yogurt works as a good substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances flavor depth; opt for pure vanilla over imitation for best results.
  • 1 cup Cream Soda Infuses traditional butterbeer flavor; a non-caffeinated soda can be used instead.
  • 3 large Eggs Provides structure; for an egg-free version, use a vegan egg substitute.
For the Honey Caramel Drizzle
  • 6 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Creates the honey caramel drizzle; vegan butter is a suitable alternative.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Adds sweetness and color; coconut sugar can also be used.
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream Contributes richness to the caramel; coconut cream is a dairy-free option.
  • 1/4 cup Honey Adds sweetness with a floral note; maple syrup serves as a perfect vegan substitute.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances flavors; sea salt is preferred for the best taste.

  • springform pan
  • Saucepan

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden and fragrant, then allow it to cool completely.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Slowly add in sour cream, vanilla extract, and cream soda, mixing until fully combined. Carefully add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until there are no visible lumps.
  3. Pour the cheesecake filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the edges are set. Turn off the oven and let it cool inside for 1 hour; then transfer it to the fridge to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  4. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar and stir until it dissolves. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened, then let cool to room temperature.
  5. Once the cheesecake is chilled, remove it from the springform pan and place it on a serving platter. Drizzle the cooled honey caramel over the top, allowing it to flow over the sides. Sprinkle crushed graham crackers and edible glitter on top before chilling for an additional 30 minutes.
