Indulge in summer’s bounty with these vibrant Summer Berry and Peach Cheesecake Bars. The creamy filling atop a buttery shortbread crust creates a delightful harmony of flavors and textures.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla powder
  • 1 cup mixed summer berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 2 ripe peaches, diced

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Step 2: In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust.
  3. Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the alcohol-free vanilla extract.
  4. Step 4: Gently fold in the mixed summer berries and diced peaches into the cheesecake mixture. Pour this filling over the prepared crust.
  5. Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven, crack open the door, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for an hour before refrigerating for at least four hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store the Summer Berry and Peach Cheesecake tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to three days. If you want to enjoy a warm dessert experience, gently reheat individual slices in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, ensuring not to overheat and lose the creamy texture. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent touch that complements the fruity flavors beautifully. For best results, make sure your cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing, as this will help achieve a smoother and creamier filling without lumps.
