This Red Velvet Cheesecake recipe combines a shortcut red velvet base with an easy no bake cheesecake topping for a delicious dessert that anyone can master! 

RED VELVET CAKE MIX The base of this cake is made from a box of red velvet cake but be sure not to follow the directions on the box. We add ingredients to make them a more “brownie-like” texture.

CHEESECAKE This layer of the cake is a version of our no-bake cheesecake recipe.  A combination of cream cheese, vanilla extract, heavy cream, and powdered sugar. Just mix, layer, and chill. So simple!

Bake this in a 10-inch sprinform pan. If your pan is a 9-inch pan, you’ll need to add a few minutes of extra baking time since it will be slightly thicker.

Recipe Tip We use a large spatula to press the edges of the red velvet cake to make it as flat and even as possible.

This cake also freezes well and can be frozen whole or individually. Cut into slices and freeze individually in an airtight container.

. Our classic cheesecake layer comes together quickly, with just cream cheese, sugar, egg, a little sour cream for tanginess, and vanilla. You'll bake for around 1 hour, let it cool slightly, then transfer to the freezer to let it cool and firm up before assembling the rest of your dessert.

. For the red velvet layers, you can make it from scratch with our super-easy red velvet cake recipe, or use a boxed mix if you prefer.

. The entire cake is covered with homemade cream cheese frosting. While you can use a different frosting if you prefer, we firmly believe cream cheese frosting is the perfect tangy accompaniment to this rich cake. 

This cake looks stunning all on its own, but if you’re looking for a bit of extra decoration, use some cake crumbs as a festive garnish! While using your serrated knife to carefully shave off the rounded top of the cakes, save your scraps. When it’s time to decorate your cake, crumble them up and sprinkle on top of your frosted cake for the ultimate presentation.

Best Red Velvet Cake Recipe

Yes! You can bake off the red velvet layers and cheesecake layer up to 2 days in advance. Let the red velvet cake layers cool, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature. After the cheesecake bakes, you'll transfer it to the freezer to cool and firm up. If you want to make this ahead, leave it there—wrapped in plastic—and let thaw in the fridge for assembly.

If you’ve ever been to The Cheesecake Factory, and if you’re a Red Velvet Cake Fan… you’ve probably ordered up the Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake.

It’s kind of the most amazing thing ever… a red velvet layer-cake with a layer of cheesecake mixed in… topped with cream cheese icing.

It really is the most beautiful cake to bake for special occasions. It’s impressive looking, and it’s always well received by your guests. It’s delicious too!

It starts with a half-recipe for classic cheesecake, baked in a water bath (details in the recipe below). The red velvet cake is made in two 9-inch-rounds- made nice and flat and even on top with the aide of cake strips .

For ease of handling, the cheesecake layer is frozen. Then it’s sandwiched in-between the two cake layers. No frosting is needed in between layers.

First things first- you apply a crumb-coat of the cream cheese frosting. The crumb-coat is a very thin layer of frosting that you spread on all around the cake.

There is an absolutely fabulous video on how to apply a crumb-coatHERE. After the crumb-coating, you’ll refrigerate the cake for about 30 minutes to set the crumb layer.

Just spread it on, or pipe it on, or decorate it how you wish. The crumbs are all tucked away in the crumb-coat layer, so you shouldn’t have any red crumbs floating around in your next layer of frosting.

To shave the white chocolate, I microwave a thick chunk of white chocolate for about 20 seconds to soften it up a bit, then use a potato peeler to shave/curl some decorative pieces. Then I just gently place them on top of the cake.

The cheesecake layer softens up and is perfect and velvety in the center. It’s almost like a giant interior layer of frosting, except that when you bite into it you realize that it’s CHEESECAKE instead.

I don’t know if I’ve ever professed my love for cheesecake before, but for me it’s up there in my top 10 favorite desserts (along with Red Velvet Cake)… so this dessert is like the perfect thing for me.

Lots of folks buy those boxed cake mixes because they don’t want to bother with the mess of trying to make a cake homemade. This recipe comes from the most wonderful from-scratch cake book: Piece of Cake by Camilla Saulsbury.

Saulsbury’s cake recipes are all ONE BOWL recipes… this means no mixing things in separate bowls and no sifting. Her recipes do not call for any fancy flours and you will not need a heavy-duty stand mixer.

Saulsbury also includes recipes for homemade Vegan and Gluten Free cake mix. And all of her measurements include metric as well as standard (a world-friendly baking book). With 5-star reviews on Amazon , this is definitely a cookbook to have on your cookbook shelf!

I needed to immediately try it but we don’t have Cheesecake Factory in the UK. So I just made it myself.

It was the best decision I have made. The fluffiness of the cake and the creaminess of the cheesecake works so well together, I love it!

Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies

This cake has a lot of different parts to it….and by a lot I mean 3, only 3, so I guess it’s not that many.

But these parts do have quite a few different steps, and you also want to make this cake over 2 days. So the process is a little long.

Side note, I get asked about this a lot. I don’t use eggs in my cheesecake, but yes I still bake
