Strawberry Cheesecake*** Recipe Ingredients: - 1 bought graham cracker crust (9 inches) - 16 oz (450 g) cream cheese, softened - 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar - 1 tsp vanilla extract - 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream - 1 cup (about 150 g) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced - Optional: extra strawberries for garnish #### Instructions: 1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Ensure the cream cheese is softened so it mixes easily. Let it sit out for about 10-15 minutes if cold. 2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, blend on medium speed until smooth and creamy, which should take about 2 minutes. 3. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream. Using a clean mixer, whip the cream on high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to over-whip, as this can cause the cream to turn buttery. 4. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula to combine until no streaks remain. This will give your cheesecake a light and fluffy texture. 5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula. 6. Add Strawberries: Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cheesecake. You can either layer them evenly or create a decorative pattern as you prefer. 7. Chill (Optional): For best results, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 10 minutes to allow it to set slightly. If you're in a rush, you can serve it immediately; just make sure to be careful when slicing. 8. Serve: If desired, garnish with extra strawberries before serving. Slice into pieces and enjoy a delicious, no-bake strawberry cheesecake!
