Steps
1. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add peanut butter and mix until well combined. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is creamy.
3. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
4. Add the Jelly Swirl: Spoon dollops of jelly on top of the cheesecake filling. Use a knife to swirl the jelly into the filling to create a marbled effect.
5. Bake the Cheesecake: Place the cheesecake in a preheated oven and bake until the center is almost set. Allow the cheesecake to cool before refrigerating it for several hours or overnight.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, slice the Peanut Butter and Jelly Cheesecake into portions and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of extra jelly on top. Enjoy the creamy, nutty, and fruity flavors in every bite!
