Whether you pair it with crackers or use it in a recipe like this one, Boursin® Cheese is an exciting staple for any occasion.

How to Make Maple Cheesecake with Boursin® Maple Bourbon Cheese

First, start by making your crust. (I used a pecan crust to keep things gluten-free, but if you'd like to go the traditional graham cracker crust, that works too.)

To do this, combine the pecans, coconut, sugar, and salt in your food processor. Add the butter and process until the mixture sticks together.

Press into the bottom of the pan and freeze until solid.

Once your crust is solid, preheat your oven. Position one rack in the bottom of the oven and another in the middle.

Put water in a baking dish on the bottom rack.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese and Boursin® Maple Bourbon Cheese until smooth.

Add the maple syrup, sugar, and heavy cream and beat until combined.

Add the eggs one at a time, and then stir in the sour cream and vanilla.

Pour the filling over the crust and bake on the center rack until set, about 60 to 75 minutes. Let it sit in the oven with the door ajar for 20 minutes and then cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours before serving.

Optional Topping

This cheesecake is delicious on its own, but this topping is an excellent addition.

Combine the syrup and cream in a saucepan and boil for 10 minutes over medium heat to make it. Reduce heat to low and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the pecans and vanilla. Drizzle over the cheesecake.
