Tart Rhubarb Cheesecake (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 1/4 cup sugar
02 - 1/2 cup melted butter
03 - 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

→ Cheesecake filling

04 - 2 eggs
05 - 1/4 cup sour cream
06 - 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
07 - 1/2 cup sugar
08 - 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

→ Rhubarb topping

09 - 1/4 cup water
10 - 1/4 cup sugar
11 - 3 cups rhubarb, chopped
12 - 1 tablespoon cornstarch
13 - 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

# Instructions:

01 - Turn your oven to 350°F (175°C) and let it heat up.
02 - Mix the graham crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together in a bowl. Press the mixture down evenly into a greased 9×9-inch pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then take it out to cool.
03 - In another bowl, whip the cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, and sugar until smooth. Crack in the eggs one at a time, beating between additions. Pour it all over the baked crust.
04 - Put the rhubarb, sugar, water, and cornstarch in a pot over medium heat. Stir now and then until the rhubarb softens and the mix gets thick, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle in the cinnamon and stir well.
05 - Dollop the rhubarb mixture on top of the cheesecake layer. Use a knife to make gentle swirls for a marbled look.
06 - Pop it back in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the center is set. Let it cool down completely, then chill it in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.
