Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strawberry puree fresh or frozen strawberries blended
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips melted
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder for the chocolate layer
  • 1 tbsp sugar for the chocolate layer

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form an even crust. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together in a mixing bowl until smooth and thick.
  3. Prepare the Strawberry and Chocolate Swirls: Divide the cheesecake mixture into two parts. Mix the strawberry puree into one half, and the melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and sugar into the other half.
  4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Spoon alternating spoonfuls of the strawberry and chocolate cheesecake mixtures onto the crust. Use a toothpick or knife to swirl the two mixtures together to create a marbled effect.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to let it set.
  6. Serve: Remove from the pan, slice, and serve chilled. Garnish with extra strawberries or chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, add a bit more cocoa powder to the chocolate mixture.
  • Use fresh strawberries for a vibrant, fresh taste or frozen strawberries if fresh ones aren't available.
  • For a fudge layer, add a layer of melted chocolate before spreading the cheesecake filling.
