Cheesecake Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Make the Cake Bottom

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a round 9-inch cake pan.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and pour into the prepared pan.

  3. 3

    Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.

  4. 4

    Make the Cheesecake Filling

    In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and mix until well combined.

  5. 5

    Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in sour cream, vanilla extract, and champagne until fully integrated.

  6. 6

    Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled cake bottom and bake at 325°F (160°C) for 50-60 minutes until the center is set. Let cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

  7. 7

    Prepare the Topping

    In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Toss well and let sit for about 30 minutes to macerate.

  8. 8

    Once the cheesecake is chilled, top it with the macerated strawberries before serving.
