Description

A delightful dessert combining creamy cheesecake with sweet and tangy strawberry swirls, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (or shortbread cookie crumbs)
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, pureed
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup strawberry glaze or preserves
  • Whipped cream for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl until well combined. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 8 minutes, then let it cool.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently. Stir in vanilla extract, sour cream, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Pour half of the filling over the cooled crust.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine pureed strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until thickened (3-5 minutes). Cool slightly, then swirl into cheesecake batter. Pour remaining batter on top.
  4. Bake at 325°F (163°C) for 50-55 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly. Turn off oven and let cool inside for 1 hour. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Spread strawberry glaze over the cheesecake, arrange fresh sliced strawberries on top, and pipe whipped cream around the edges before serving.

Notes

Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
