Ingredients
  

Crust
  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs This forms the base of your cheesecake, providing a crunchy texture.
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted The butter helps bind the crumbs together, creating a firm crust.
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar A touch of sweetness enhances the flavor of the crust.
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened This is the star ingredient, giving the cheesecake its rich and creamy texture.
  • 1 cup powdered sugar This sweetens the filling and helps achieve a smooth consistency.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Vanilla adds a lovely flavor that complements the cream cheese.
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream Whipping cream adds lightness and a fluffy texture to the cheesecake filling.

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan

Method
 

  1. Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Make the cheesecake filling by beating softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  3. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form and gently fold into the cream cheese mixture. Pour over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  4. After chilling, remove the sides of the springform pan, slice, and serve chilled. Optionally, top with fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream.
