Tip

1- The intensity of the flavor is essential for this strawberry cheesecake. For the best result, use ripe strawberries for a sweeter and fruitier flavor. You can also use frozen strawberries if it is outside of the strawberry season but remember to consider the extra liquid added.

2- The natural cream cheese is the key to a creamy and smooth filling. Take it out of the fridge about an hour before making the filling so it is softened to room temperature. This will make it blend with the other ingredients, so you avoid getting lumps in the cheesecake. Another way to avoid lumps is to sieve the whipping cream.

3- To check if your strawberry cheesecake is set, look for a shiny top that is firm to the touch. If it still feels jiggly, leave it longer in the fridge or move it to the freezer for about 30 minutes before cutting the cake. Do not freeze it longer than that, or the cheesecake loses the creamy texture right before serving.
