Ingredients (view qty in metric system instead)
Crust: 5 tbsp. melted butter 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs 1/2 cup sweetened, shredded coconut, lightly toasted 1/4 cup sugar
Filling: 24 ounces cream cheese, softened 1 cup sugar 1/4 cup melted, cooled butter 3 tbsp. cornstarch 4 large eggs 1 cup canned cream of coconut 1/2 cup coconut rum
Directions
For Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine melted butter, graham crumbs, coconut and sugar in a food processor. Blend until evenly moistened. Press into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan. Bake crust about 10 minutes until lightly browned on edges. Transfer crust to a rack and cool. Reduce oven to 300 degrees.
For Filling: Beat together cream cheese, sugar, melted butter and cornstarch in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in cream of coconut and rum. Pour the filling over the prepared crust. Place cheesecake in a large roasting pan. Add enough hot water to come halfway up sides of the springform. Cover roasting pan with foil. Bake cheesecake 60 minutes. Uncover and continue baking 40 minutes until cheesecake is softly set and lightly browned. Remove cheesecake from the water bath and transfer to a rack. Cool cheesecake to room temperature. Discard foil. Cover and refrigerate cheesecake at least 4 hours or overnight.
Run a hot damp towel around the outside of the springform several times and release pan sides. Slice cheesecake with a warm knife and serve.
Serves 10 to 12.
