My kids love the creamy texture of cheesecake, so much so that I get requests to bake one almost every other week. Today, we made an extra special one: Stitch Cheesecake. It’s so fun to make and even better to eat!
The result is a smooth, velvety cheesecake that no one can resist.

Stitch Cheesecake
Ingredients
- 1/3 Cup butter, melted
- 1 Cup graham crackers, finely crumbed
- 3 packages (8 Oz.) cream cheese blocks, softened
- 1 1/2 Cups sugar
- 1/2 Cup sour cream
- 2 Tbsps lemon juice
- Blue gel food coloring
- 3 eggs
- Pink, blue, and black candy melts
- SUPPLIES:
- 8″ spring-release pan
- Roasting pan
- Pen
- Paper
- Parchment paper
- Piping bag
- Kitchen scissors
Helpful Tip
All cutting should be done by an adult.
Directions
-
Mix melted butter with graham cracker crumbs until it resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of the spring-release pan and pack the crumbs tightly with the bottom of a cup. Bake for 10 minutes at 350° F and set aside to cool.
-
Using a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese with sugar until combined. Add sour cream, lemon juice, and blue food coloring. Then, add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour into the spring-release pan.
-
Wrap the sides of the baking pan with foil to prevent water seepage when baking in the water bath (which will prevent over-baking or cracking).
-
Place a roasting tray into the oven. Pour 1″ of hot water into the tray and carefully place the baking pan into the tray. Bake for 55 minutes.
-
Cool the cheesecake in the oven with the door ajar for 30 minutes before taking it out of the oven. Place in the fridge overnight for it to set.
-
Draw Stitch’s facial features on paper and place a sheet of parchment paper over it.
-
Melt candy melts and add to a piping bag. Snip a small hole and pipe the chocolate onto the parchment paper, using the template beneath as a guide. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes to set before using.
-
Remove the chocolate from the parchment paper and add to the cake. Use a bit of melted candy melts, if needed.
