White Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake

In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and refined sugar until well combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
2. Make the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and pure sugar until smooth and creamy.
Slowly add the melted white chocolate and vanilla extract while continuing to beat the mixture until fully incorporated.
Add the egg and beat again until smooth.
Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries.
3. Assemble and Bake:
Pour the cheesecake filling into the cooled graham cracker crust.
Smooth the top with a spatula and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden. A slight jiggle in the center is fine.
Allow the cheesecake to cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to fully set.
4. Prepare the Topping:
Before serving, top the cheesecake with the chopped fresh strawberries and drizzle the melted white chocolate chips over the top.
5. Serve:
Slice the cheesecake and enjoy its creamy, decadent texture and fruity sweetness!
