Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Heavy cream
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries, diced
- 0.25 cups Strawberry jam
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Prepare the crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined and the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to firmly press down the mixture. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the mixture.
Fold the diced strawberries into the cheesecake filling until evenly distributed.
Remove the crust from the refrigerator and spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
In a small bowl, mix the strawberry jam to loosen its texture. Drizzle it over the top of the cheesecake and use a knife or skewer to create a marbled effect.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours, or overnight, to allow it to set.
Before serving, carefully remove the springform pan ring. Top the cheesecake with additional fresh strawberries if desired. Slice and serve chilled.
