With cheesecake on top, and red velvet cake on bottom, it is a great combination dessert that fills every sweet tooth craving you may have. Let’s chat about how to make this yummy treat at home!

Ingredients

All Ingredients should be room temperature

Red Velvet Cake

• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 3/4 cups sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoons cocoa
• 1 ounce red food coloring
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1 cups flour
• 1/2 tablespoon vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Cheesecake Filling

• 1 1/2 lb. Cream Cheese
• 1 1/3 C. Sugar
• 5 Large Eggs
• 16 oz. Sour Cream
• 1/4 C. Flour
• 2 tsp. Vanilla
• 2 tsp. Lemon Juice
• Food Coloring

Step One

Preheat oven to 350 deg F. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9″ springform pan. If you don’t have springform pan, you can use a regular circular cake pan. I didn’t have a springform pan on hand, and it worked just fine! If you are using a regular pan, make sure to grease the sides as well.

Step Two

Cream together butter, sugar and eggs.

Step Three

Add in cocoa & food coloring until it becomes red or pink in color.

Step Four

Mix salt and vanilla in buttermilk and add with the flour – one cup at a time. If you do not have buttermilk, you can separately make buttermilk with equal parts regular milk & vinegar. Leave until it curdles a little bit, and voila! Buttermilk. Once the buttermilk forms, add it to the mixture.

Step Five

Mix baking soda and vinegar separately. Do not beat after adding this mixture. Simply pour on top of the batter.

Step Six

Pour batter into your greased regular or springform pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until there are no crumbs on your tester stick.

Step Seven

Cool cake in pan. Lower oven temperature to 325 deg F.

Step Eight

Beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy.

Step Nine

Add the sugar a little at a time and continue beating until it is creamy and free of lumps.

Step Ten

Add one egg at a time, mixing after each egg.

Step Eleven

When eggs have been thoroughly mixed into the cream cheese add flour, vanilla and lemon juice, mix well.

Step Twelve

Add sour cream and beat well.

Step Thirteen

Divide the cheesecake batter into a bowl for each food coloring color you have. Ideally, you should have the below colors. If you don’t have them, and don’t have the proper colors to mix, any fun color will do the trick! Mix the colors with the cheesecake mixture thoroughly.

• Purple
• Red
• Yellow
• Light blue
• Green
• Orange

Step Fourteen

Drop large spoonfuls of the colored batters randomly on the red velvet cake in the pan. Swirl each layer slightly using a toothpick or fork.

Step Fifteen

Place on the top rack in the middle of the oven. Cook for 45-60 minutes.

Step Sixteen

When time is up, prop open oven door and leave in oven for one hour. After one hour, remove from oven. Let cool enough before the cheesecake is put into the refrigerator for 2-4 hours.

Delicious! My tie dye cheesecake turned out almost perfect. I read the flour ingredient for the cheesecake incorrectly, so the cheesecake topping was not as fluffy & cheesey as it was supposed to be. However, my family & I thoroughly enjoyed it! It brought me right back to staying at Pop Century resort, and looking forward to my 2021 trip!!! Make your tie dye cheesecake today.
