  • 35g sugar
  • 75g melted unsalted butter
  • 32 oz full-fat cream cheese
  • 325g granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 4 large eggs
  • 120g heavy cream
  • 240g sour cream
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2–3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 lb strawberries, roughly chopped
  • 55g sugar
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • Juice of 1/2 a lemon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl; press into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes until golden and let cool.
  2. Beat room-temperature cream cheese until smooth; gradually add granulated sugar and salt. Incorporate vanilla essence and eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add heavy cream, sour cream, and cornstarch; mix until combined.
  3. Pour filling over cooled crust; bake at 325°F (160°C) for 60-75 minutes until set but slightly jiggly. Turn off oven; leave cheesecake inside with the door ajar for one hour to cool.

  5. Refrigerate cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
