Ingredients
Scale
For the Graham Cracker Crust:
- 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 7 oz marshmallow fluff (1 jar)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
Optional Toppings:
- Fresh berries
- Mini marshmallows
- Chocolate shavings or drizzle
- Crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- Make the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is evenly moistened. Firmly press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust layer. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it becomes smooth and fluffy. Add the marshmallow fluff and vanilla extract, mixing well until creamy and fully combined. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping to keep the mixture light and airy, being careful not to deflate it.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Evenly spread the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust using a spatula, smoothing out the top. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set and flavors to meld.
- Decorate and Serve: Before serving, add your preferred toppings such as fresh strawberries, mini marshmallows, chocolate drizzle, or crushed graham crackers for extra texture and flavor. Carefully remove the springform ring, slice the cheesecake, and serve it chilled for best taste and texture.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps.
- Chilling the cheesecake overnight enhances the flavor and texture.
- Optional toppings can be customized according to seasonality or preference.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days for freshness.
