Instructions
Basic Cheesecake Filling Preparation
- Wash 1 ½ cups of the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice. Place them on a paper towel to remove any excess liquid. Keep the remaining strawberries to finish the Cheesecake.
- Using a stand-up mixer or hand mixer, blend the cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the Whipped Topping blending into the Cream Cheese.
- Blend in the Sugar, Vanilla and Peach Schnapps.
Chilled Oreo Cookie Cheesecake Preparation
- Take your store bought Oreo Crust out of its package.
- If you are making a crust, then crush the Oreos cookies finely, mix with butter. Press the Oreo mixture onto bottom and up the side of an 8- or 9-inch pie plate.
- Spoon in about half of the Filling and smooth out evenly.
- Layer the sliced Strawberries across the Cheesecake.
- Top with the remaining Filling and smooth out evenly. You might get a few Oreo crumbs into the Cheesecake but that is okay since you will be adding a topping before serving.
- Place in the refrigerator ideally overnight to enhance the flavors.
Blueberry Sauce Preparation
- Place the blueberries, water, and Sugar into a medium sauce pan – I prefer a no stick for easy cleanup. Simmer to a low boil.
- Combine Cornstarch with 2 tbsp cold water.
- Slowly stir the Cornstarch mixture into the sauce pan. Simmer at a low boil until desired thickness.
- Mix in the Vanilla.
Mixed Berry Cheesecake Final Preparation
- Place the Cheesecake in the freezer for an hour or two before adding your Mixed Berry topping. If you are low on time, you could skip placing in the freezer. It does make the Cheesecake firmer when decorating.
- Place the desired amount of Blueberry Topping onto the center and spread outwards.
- Surround the Blueberry Topping with the remaining Strawberries. They could be sliced in half or whole Strawberries could be used.
- Add any additional toppings such as Pearls Candy depending upon the occasion.
- Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Cut with a sharp knife that is held under hot water to make it easier to cut the Cheesecake. After each use, wipe the knife with a paper towel to avoid adding any Oreo crust left on the knife back onto the Cheesecake. Carefully lift out of the pan, placing onto a plate. Consider adding more Blueberry Sauce or Strawberries.
