Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 package Cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Strawberry jelly
• 0.5 cup Fresh strawberries, sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan to form the crust.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the peanut butter and beat until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
5. Pour half of the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan. Spoon dollops of strawberry jelly over the cream cheese mixture. Swirl the jelly into the cream cheese mixture using a knife.
6. Pour the remaining cream cheese mixture over the jelly layer. Smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
8. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour.
9. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
11. Garnish with fresh sliced strawberries before serving.
