  • 1 teaspoon ice water

Cheesecake Filling:

  • 16 ounces (2 packages) softened cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  2. Place flour, sugar and salt in food processor and pulse until combined.
  3. Add butter and process until the dough begins to form a ball, adding ice water if necessary.

  7. After crust cools for 30 minutes, pour cheesecake filling evenly over the crust.
  8. Spoon jam in dollops on top of filling and then swirl with a knife to combine.
