Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ cup melted butter

Filling

  • 24 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream

Topping

  • 1 cup fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan to prevent the cheesecake from sticking.
  2. Make the Crust: In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, and melted butter. Mix well, then press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  3. Prepare the Cheesecake Batter: Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 cup sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time to the cream cheese mixture, beating well after each addition to achieve a smooth batter.
  5. Incorporate Sour Cream: Stir in the sour cream gently until combined, which will add creaminess and a subtle tang to the cheesecake.
  6. Assemble: Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared graham cracker crust in the springform pan. Arrange the sliced peaches and fresh mixed berries evenly atop the batter for an attractive and fruity topping.
  7. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. This ensures a creamy texture.
  8. Cool and Chill: Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to firm up completely.
  9. Serve: For an elegant presentation, garnish with additional fresh berries and sliced peaches just before serving.

Notes

  • Use a mix of your favorite berries for variety and enhanced flavor.
  • Garnish with additional fresh berries and peach slices before serving for a visually appealing dessert.
