Blend cracker crumbs and butter in medium bowl. Press mixture over bottom of springform pan. Bake crust until lightly browned at edges, about 8 minutes. Cool completely. Filling prep: In an electric mixer, beat cream cheese in large mixer bowl until fluffy. Slowly mix in sugar and beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy (1 to 2 minutes). Continue beating, adding eggs 1 at a time, until well mixed. (DO NOT OVER BEAT.) Gently fold in red bean by hand into cream cheese mixture. Pour filling onto crust. Bake cake until edges are set and center moves only slightly when pan is shaken, about 45 mins to an hour. Cool completely in pan on rack. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours. (Can be prepared a day ahead.) Run small sharp knife around pan sides to loosen. Release pan sides. Transfer cheesecake to platter. Makes three 4 " springform pans Tip: To prevent cracking, bake cheesecake in a water bath. Firstly, prepare the springform pans by wrapping foil to prevent water from sipping through the bottom of the pan. Use a separate pan that will be able to hold the springform pan and place it in the center. Carefully pour hot water into the pan that is holding the springform up to about 3/4 " up the side of the springform. This water bath will distribute the heat evenly and will prevent the cheesecake from cracking. *Double the amounts for a 9 " springform pan. AuthorNote: I love red beans and I love cheesecake. I was writing up some recipe ideas for different types of cheesecake and hubby came up with the idea of this red bean cheesecake. Of course I could not resist. So this is one of few cheesecakes that we have been experimenting. Since it is a test recipe, we made it with the 4 " springform pan -- just in case it . Surprisingly, it's not bad at all. I definitely like the color and the red bean adds some texture to the bite from the regular creamy cheesecake filling.
