Berry Swirl Cheesecake Recipe

Cheesecake Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Crust

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust.

2. 2

   Make the Cheesecake Filling

   In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Add sour cream and mix until fully incorporated. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition.

3. 3

   Create the Berry Swirl

   In a separate bowl, mash your choice of mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) and swirl them into the cheesecake filling gently for a marbled effect.

4. 4

   Bake the Cheesecake

   Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the center is set and only slightly jiggly.

5. 5

   Cool and Refrigerate

   Turn off the oven and crack the oven door, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour. Afterward, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
