How to Make Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. For the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Let the crust cool completely while you prepare the filling.
  5. For the filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Gently fold in the whipped cream and the sliced strawberries.
  7. Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set. Do not overbake.
  9. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set completely.
  10. Once chilled, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Top with extra strawberries and whipped cream, if desired.
  11. Serve and enjoy your homemade masterpiece!
