Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • Fresh fruit or fruit topping (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until combined. Press the mixture into a 9-inch springform pan and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Make the Filling: Soften cream cheese and beat in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing until smooth.
  3. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Serve: Remove the springform pan sides, garnish with fresh fruit if desired, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easy mixing.
  • Do not overbeat the heavy cream to avoid turning it into butter.
  • For best results, chill the cheesecake overnight.
