Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Prepare the crust by combining graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until golden and crumbly. Press mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for about 10 minutes. Let it cool.
  3. Make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add in the sugar and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently. Blend in the heavy cream until the mixture is creamy.
Baking
  1. Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust and bake for 50-60 minutes, until edges are set but the center jiggles slightly.
  2. Cool the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for an hour to prevent cracking, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Topping
  1. Combine mixed berries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5 minutes until the berries soften. Cool before spreading over the cheesecake.
Serving
  1. Slice, serve, and enjoy the cheesecake topped with berry goodness!

Notes

Make it a day ahead for best results. Avoid overbeating the eggs to prevent cracking. Variations include using different fruits or adding chocolate drizzle.
