How to Make Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Make the shortcake: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in heavy cream until just combined. Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  3. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
  4. Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in sour cream, then eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled shortcake crust.
  6. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 30 minutes. Then, remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  9. Make the whipped cream topping: In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  10. Top the cooled cheesecake with sliced strawberries and whipped cream before serving.
