Ingredients

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 prepared graham cracker crumb crust (6 ounces or 9 inches)
1/2 cup sour cream
3 cups strawberries, stems removed

Method

Using an electric mixer, blend the softened cream cheese with the sugar and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Incorporate the eggs into the cream cheese mixture and continue to mix until everything is fully blended.
Transfer the prepared filling into the graham cracker crumb crust.
Place the cheesecake in an oven preheated to 350 and bake for 40 minutes, or until the centre is nearly set, then allow it to cool.
Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for 3 hours or overnight. Once chilled, spread the sour cream evenly over the top. Arrange the strawberries with the stem side facing down.
Finish by drizzling the warmed strawberry jelly over the assembled cheesecake.
