Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325&# 194;°F (165ðC) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Press the crust mixture firmly onto the bottom and slightly up the sides of the prepared springform pan.
  4. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove and let it cool on a wire rack while you prepare the filling.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add whipping cream, flour, eggs, rum, and nutmeg to the cheese mixture; beat on low speed until just combined and smooth.
  7. Increase oven temperature to 425ðF (220ðC) and pour the filling over the cooled crust.
  8. Bake at 425ðF for 10 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 250ðF (120ðC) without opening the oven door.
  9. Continue baking at 250ðF (121ðC) for 45 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly when shaken.
  10. Turn off the oven and crack the door open; let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
  11. Remove from the oven and run a knife around the rim to loosen the cake before removing the springform sides.
  12. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely before serving.
  13. Garnish with chocolate cutouts and candies just before serving for a festive presentation.
