Instructions
1. Prepare the crust
- Crush the graham crackers or digestive biscuits using a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.
- Pour in the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan or pie dish to create an even crust.
- Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
2. Make the cheesecake filling
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy with no lumps.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk gradually, beating continuously until fully combined and silky.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure an even mixture.
3. Assemble the cheesecake
- Pour the cream cheese filling over the chilled crust and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Smooth the top to create a neat finish.
4. Chill and serve
- Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set and firm.
- Once set, remove from the pan and slice using a clean, sharp knife.
- Serve as is or top with your favorite fruits, sauces, or nuts for added flavor and presentation.
