Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust.

  • Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

  • Once cooled, arrange raspberries and peach slices evenly over the cheesecake layer.

  • In another bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.

Notes

  • For easy slicing, run your knife under warm water before each cut.

  • If peaches are not in season, canned peaches (drained well) can be used.

  • Want more flavor? Add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture for a tangy twist.
