Ingredients

• 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 1 stick Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
• 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup Blueberries
• 2 cups Strawberries, sliced
• 0.5 cup White chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust by combining the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar in a mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.

Step 2

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan to form an even layer. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.

Step 6

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

Step 7

Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled crust, using a spatula to smooth the surface.

Step 8

Decorate the cheesecake to resemble the American flag: Arrange the blueberries in the top-left corner to represent the stars, and then alternate rows of sliced strawberries and plain cheesecake filling to create red and white stripes.

Step 9

For an optional touch, sprinkle white chocolate chips between the rows of strawberries for added texture and sweetness.

Step 10

Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

Step 11

Cut into squares and serve cold. Enjoy your festive and fruity cheesecake flag!
