Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tbsp Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tbsp Granulated sugar (for crust)
• 16 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1.25 cups Heavy cream, cold
• 2 cups Fresh fruit (assorted berries, kiwi, mango, etc.), diced or sliced
• 2 tbsp Apricot jam
• 1 tsp Water

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 2

Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, to set.

Step 6

Once the cheesecake has set, arrange the fresh fruit decoratively on top to create a jewel-like pattern.

Step 7

In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the apricot jam and water. Heat for 10-15 seconds until warm, then stir until smooth. Lightly brush the jam mixture over the fruit to give it a glossy finish.

Step 8

Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve chilled.
