Assemble and Bake
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled red velvet crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about 1 hour. This helps prevent cracking.
Step 4: Chill and Prepare the Topping
Once the cheesecake has cooled, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
To make the topping, whip the heavy cream and ¼ cup of sugar together in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form.
Step 5: Serve
Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and place it on a serving plate.
Generously frost the top with the whipped cream topping.
Garnish with additional fresh strawberries for a beautiful presentation.
Step 6: Enjoy!
Slice your indulgent cheesecake, serve, and watch as everyone falls in love with this stunning dessert!
Presentation Tips
For an elegant touch, drizzle a raspberry or strawberry sauce over each slice when serving.
Place whole strawberries or mint leaves around the cheesecake for a pop of color on the serving platter.
Serve with a cup of coffee or a glass of sparkling wine for a sophisticated dessert experience.
