I love Mexican food, but I think Mexican desserts are limited. Flan is great, but not every time. This Mexican-inspired avocado and lime cheesecake recipe is unique, easy, and fabulous. My friends constantly ask me to make it. You must have an ice cream maker.

Yield:
1 9-inch cheesecake

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • 1 ½ ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

  • 2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

  • ½ cup fresh lime juice

  • 1 (8 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

Directions

  1. Heat cream in a small saucepan until small bubbles appear around the edges. Remove from the heat and stir in sugar until it dissolves. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and allow to cool, about 10 minutes.

  2. Blend avocado and cream cheese in a food processor until smooth. Add lime juice and process until smooth.

  3. Whisk blended avocado mixture into cooled cream mixture, then pour into an ice cream maker. Freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes.

  4. Spoon avocado mixture into the prepared pie crust; smooth the surface with a spatula. Freeze until solid, at least 2 hours. Let cheesecake sit at room temperature until slightly softened yet firm enough to slice before serving, 10 to 15 minutes.
