Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter; press into the bottom of the springform pan to form the crust.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, then add sour cream, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar; mix until fully combined.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and slightly jiggly.
- While the cheesecake cools, caramelize sliced ripe bananas in a pan with brown sugar until golden and soft.
- For the rum glaze, combine brown sugar, dark rum, and cornstarch (if using) in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until thickened and bubbly.
- Pour the caramelized bananas over the cooled cheesecake and drizzle with the rum glaze before serving.
Notes
Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing. You can adjust the thickness of the rum glaze by adding more or less cornstarch to your desired consistency.
