Ingredients
Cheesecake Filling:
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Topping:
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 F and lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until light and creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until just combined. Pour the cream cheese mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is just set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Once the cheesecake is cooled, prepare the chocolate covered strawberry topping. Place the strawberries in a medium bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan, heat the chocolate chips and heavy cream together over low heat, stirring occasionally. When the chocolate is melted and smooth, pour it over the strawberries and stir to coat.
Spread the chocolate covered strawberries over the cooled cheesecake and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least two hours. Slice and serve cold. Enjoy!
