Killer Cheesecake With A Raspberry And Strawberry Reduction Sauce
To make the fresh whipped cream, place the metal bowl from your stand mixer in the freezer and allow to cool for 20 minutes. Reattach the metal bowl to the stand mixer after 20 minutes (using a whisk attachment). Add the heavy whipping cream, confectioners’ sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl; whisk on low for 1 minute; slowly increase speed to high until the whipped cream has formed stiff peaks (I like my whipped cream as thick as can be).
I hope y’all enjoy this recipe as much as my family! ENJOY!
