Cake doughnut? Jelly doughnut? Raised and glazed? Now you don’t have to choose. With its fine, moist crumb, raspberry jam filling and sweet glaze, this bundt combines all the best characteristics of these doughnuts into one crowd-sized treat that’s better than anything the bakery has to offer. So skip the dozen doughnuts, because this cake serves 12. And its showstopping looks hide its secret well. That secret? It’s easy! This recipe begins with a box of Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ Yellow Cake Mix. Grab your jar of jam and a couple of kitchen staples, and you’ll have everything you need. The poking technique used to add the jam filling is one you can master with the step-by-step instructions below. As for the glaze, it’s a simple matter of mixing powdered sugar and milk. So you can create a cake that does you proud with seven simple ingredients and less than a half hour of hands-on time.

For perfect pokes, measure and place a piece of tape 2 inches from the top of the handle. This will ensure all pokes are the same depth. 


Wipe your wooden spoon off after each poke to keep the holes separated. If crumbs build up, the holes will start to get bigger and take in too much jam, which will throw off the ratio of cake to jam and make the cake harder to cut into neat slices.

Serve this at brunch alongside coffee, after dinner with ice cream on top, or any time in between.

Wrapping foil around the bottom of the pan helps to keep anything from dripping out while baking.

It’s best to store the cheesecake in the springform pan until ready to serve. The pan will protect it from getting bumped in the refrigerator.

Slice the cheesecake using a hot, wet knife, wiping the knife blade clean in between slices.

While New York is the city most often associated with cheesecake, Chicago, Philadelphia and St. Louis also lay claim to this delicious dessert.

What is the best cheesecake flavor?

Adding either heavy cream or sour cream to the cheesecake layer will help create a smoother texture. But keep in mind that heavy cream may mask the tangy cream cheese flavor while sour cream will help enhance it. In our Best Cheesecake recipe, we add sour cream to the top layer only, but all that nice tang from the cream cheese still comes through.

Is heavy cream or sour cream better for cheesecake?

Yes, you will want to make sure your cream cheese is softened before using it to make this Best Cheesecake recipe. The best way to soften cream cheese is to take it out of the fridge, and let it sit on your countertop for an hour before using. But if you forget or are short on time, don’t worry! A delicious homemade cheesecake is still in your future. To quickly soften your cream cheese, place it unwrapped on a microwave-safe plate and microwave it for 10 seconds. Repeat a few times, checking the texture and temp after each time. Watch it closely! Microwaves vary, and the cream cheese can turn into a messy puddle very quickly.

Should cream cheese be room temp when making cheesecake?

First of all, make sure that your baked cheesecake is completely cool. Then, with the cheesecake still in the springform pan, cover and refrigerate it for 3 to 5 days.

What’s the best way to store cheesecake?

The very first mention of cheesecake is from Ancient Greece. A physician in the 5th century BC wrote a book on making cheesecakes. It wasn’t until about the 18th century that the version of cheesecake that we know and love today emerged. It was around this time that Europeans began to use eggs instead of yeast, which gave cheesecake a more dessert-like quality. As the Europeans immigrated to America, they brought their cheesecake recipes along with them, and the rest, as they say, is history!

What’s the history of cheesecake?

New York-style cheesecake typically has a denser texture than regular cheesecake thanks to the addition of more cream cheese. Other ingredients like extra eggs, egg yolks and sour cream may be added to give New York-style cheesecake a smooth texture.

What is the difference between New York-style cheesecake and regular cheesecake?

The top of your cheesecake may crack for several different reasons. The most common reason is overmixing, which can incorporate too much air into the batter. Once it’s baked, the air bubbles will burst, causing the top to crack. To help prevent cracking, make sure your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing your batter. Also, don’t forget to set that timer! Overbaking or opening your oven door before your cake is ready can also cause cracking. Finally, after removing your cake from the oven, be sure to let it cool at room temp before placing it in the fridge to chill.
