Coconut Sugar Shortbread Cheesecake Crust ✨🤎

Thick, buttery, and just bougie enough to steal the show

Ingredients

  • 150g flour
  • 62–65g coconut sugar
  • 105–110g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.5–2g salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) 🔥
  2. Mix your dry ingredients
    In a bowl, whisk together flour, coconut sugar, and salt.
  3. Add the good stuff 🧈✨
    Pour in melted butter and vanilla, mixing until you get a soft, damp sand texture that holds when pressed.
  4. Press + shape
    Transfer to a 9-inch springform pan and press firmly into the base, slightly up the sides.
    Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup for that smooth, even finish.
  5. Bake to golden perfection
    Bake for 12–14 minutes, until lightly golden and set.
  6. Cool slightly
    Let it rest for 10–15 minutes before adding your cheesecake filling.

Bougie Baker Tip 💅

While it’s still warm, gently press the crust again to tighten everything up — this gives you those clean, bakery-style slices later.

This crust is giving rich, caramel-y, elevated energy — not just a base, a whole moment 🤎✨
