Ingredients:
– 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and diced
– 1 cup fresh raspberries
– 1/4 cup peach preserves
Instructions:
1. Create the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust.
2. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully blended.
3. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will add a light, airy texture to the cheesecake.
4. Combine the Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Carefully fold in the diced peaches and fresh raspberries.
5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly in the springform pan.
6. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm.
7. Finish with Peach Preserves: Just before serving, warm the peach preserves in the microwave for a few seconds until they’re easy to drizzle. Pour the preserves over the top of the cheesecake for a beautiful finish.
