Ingredients

  • Sliced strawberries
  • Granulated sugar
  • Lemon juice
  • Heavy whipping cream
  • Powdered sugar
  • Vanilla extract
  • Red velvet cake layers

Instructions

  1. After cooling, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the strawberries in the sugar and lemon juice.
  3. Let the mixture sit for about 15-20 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  5. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as it can turn into butter.
  6. Once the red velvet cakes and cheesecake have cooled completely, place one red velvet cake layer on a serving plate.
  7. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top of the first cake layer, followed by the cheesecake layer.
  8. Top the cheesecake with the second red velvet cake layer.
  9. Spread more whipped cream on top of the second cake layer and decorate with the strawberry topping.
  10. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious Red Velvet Strawberry Cheesecake!

Notes

  • For best results, use room temperature ingredients for both the cake and cheesecake layers.
