Ingredients

Graham Cracker Crust***

  • 1 ½ cups crushed graham cracker crumbs
  • 8 Tablespoons melted butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed

Strawberry Cheesecake Filling

  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 pound strawberries rinsed & hulled
  • ¾ cup cold heavy cream
  • 2 packages 8 ounces each full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Toppings

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a bowl combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter and brown sugar with a fork until well combined.
  • Press graham cracker mixture into the bottom and 1 ½ inches up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate.
  • Place the graham cracker crust in a preheated oven for 10 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
  • While the crust is cooling, wash and chop strawberries. Then puree in a blender or food process until smooth. Strain strawberries through a fine mesh strainer to remove seeds.
  • In a small bowl whisk together strawberry puree, powdered sugar and cornstarch until smooth. Place in a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until very thick. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl beat cream cheese and sour cream with an electric mixer on high speed until smooth.
  • Add heavy whipping cream and pure vanilla to the bowl and beat until smooth and fluffy. Add strawberry sauce and beat on medium-high speed until smooth and fluffy.
  • Spread strawberry cheesecake filling into prepared crust and refrigerate at least 6-8 hours or overnight until thoroughly chilled and set.
  • Garnish with whipped cream and chopped strawberries as desired.

Storage Tips
FRIDGE: Cover the cheesecake in plastic wrap, or place the leftover servings in an airtight container. Store the homemade no bake cheesecake in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
FREEZER: If you are storing a whole cheesecake, wrap it very well in plastic wrap before freezing it. If you’ve got a few servings left, wrap each slice in plastic wrap individually. Freeze like this for up to 3 months. Allow to fully thaw before serving!
