Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup dragonfruit puree (pink/red variety for vibrant color)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Press into the bottom of the pan to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool.
  3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla extract, beating until combined.
  4. Mix in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Add dragonfruit puree, sour cream, and lemon juice. Mix until fully incorporated.
  6. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
  8. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  9. Slice into squares or rectangles. Garnish with dragonfruit slices if desired.

Notes

  • Use red/pink dragonfruit for the most vibrant color.
  • Cheesecake slices can be frozen and thawed for later enjoyment.
