Ingredients Needed for This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

For the Graham Cracker Crust:

2 cups (200g) Graham Cracker Crumbs
¼ cup (50g) Granulated Sugar
½ cup (113g) Unsalted Butter, melted

For the Cream Cheese Filling:

32 oz (four 8 oz packages) Full-Fat Brick-Style Cream Cheese, room temperature
1¼ cups (250g) Granulated Sugar
1 cup (240g) Sour Cream, room temperature
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
3 large Eggs, room temperature

For the Triple Berry Topping:

1 cup Fresh Blueberries
1 cup Fresh Strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 cup Fresh Raspberries
¼ cup Granulated Sugar
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Cornstarch dissolved in 1 tbsp Cold Water

How to Make This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with two layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil.

For the crust, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a medium bowl until the most evenly moistened. Press the mixture most firmly into the bottom and partially up the sides of the prepared springform pan. Pre-bake the crust for 8 minutes.

For the filling, beat the room-temperature cream cheese on medium speed until the most silky smooth. Gradually add the sugar and beat until combined. Beat in the sour cream and vanilla. On low speed, add the eggs one at a time, mixing only until just combined after each — do not overmix once eggs are added, cara mia.

Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust. Smooth the top. Place the wrapped springform pan in a large roasting pan. Fill the roasting pan with enough hot water to come about halfway up the sides of the springform pan.

Bake for 55 to 65 minutes until the edges are fully set and the center has the most gentle jello-like jiggle when the pan is carefully nudged.

Remove the cheesecake from the water bath. Run a thin knife around the edges to prevent cracking as it cools. Cool at room temperature for one hour then refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.

For the triple berry topping, combine all three berries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to break down and release their juices. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes until the most beautifully thickened and the most glossy. Cool completely.

Spoon the completely cooled berry topping over the chilled cheesecake before serving.

How to Serve This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Serve chilled with a large sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between each cut for the most cleanly defined and the most beautifully individual cross-section of graham cracker crust, silky cream cheese filling, and the most glossy three-berry crown in every individual slice.

For the most completely beautiful individual presentation, place fresh whole berries over the most completely set berry topping immediately before serving for the most vibrant and the most naturally polished individual appearance. Our Philadelphia Cheesecake Bars make a beautifully equally individually portioned and equally berry-topped companion for a complete and wonderful berry cheesecake collection.

How to Store This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Add the berry topping within 24 hours of serving for the most vibrant color and the most properly fresh individual appearance. The cheesecake is the most extraordinary when made the day before serving — the overnight chilling produces the most deeply developed flavor and the most properly set individual texture.

Tips to Make This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Bring all dairy ingredients — cream cheese, sour cream, and eggs — fully to room temperature before mixing. Room-temperature ingredients blend to the most completely lump-free and the most silky smooth individual filling without any overmixing required. Cold ingredients force additional mixing time that incorporates too much air and causes cracking.

Run a thin knife around the inside edge of the springform pan immediately after removing from the oven — before any cracking can occur during cooling. This most simple technique releases the individual cake from the pan edge and allows the most natural shrinkage during cooling without cracking the most delicate surface.

Helpful Notes for This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

The water bath is the most essential technique for the most crack-free and the most beautifully smooth individual cheesecake surface. The surrounding steam produces the most even and the most gentle baking environment that prevents the most rapid surface drying that causes cracking.

Frozen berries can substitute for fresh in the topping when individual berry varieties are out of season — use directly from frozen in the saucepan without thawing first. Adjust sugar up slightly if using all frozen berries as they are the most naturally tart after thawing.

Variation of This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Maria made a version adding a tablespoon of fresh lemon zest to the cream cheese filling for the most completely extraordinary and the most vibrantly bright lemon-triple-berry cheesecake. Teresa tried a mixed stone fruit topping — cherries, peaches, and plums — in place of the berry mixture for the most completely extraordinary and the most warmly seasonal individual summer stone fruit cheesecake.

For an individual no-bake version, substitute the baked filling with a whipped cream cheese and heavy cream no-bake filling pressed over the crust and chilled for 4 hours for the most completely extraordinary and the most effortlessly quick triple berry no-bake cheesecake. Our Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake makes a beautifully equally baked and equally berry-brilliant companion for a complete and wonderful baked berry cheesecake collection.

FAQs About This Triple Berry Cheesecake Recipe

Can I use frozen berries for the topping?

Yes. Frozen berries work most beautifully for the topping — add them directly from frozen to the saucepan without thawing first. The longer cooking time needed to thaw and break down the frozen berries also concentrates the most beautiful individual flavor and creates the most deeply colored and the most glossy individual sauce. Increase the cornstarch slurry by half a teaspoon if a thicker individual sauce is preferred.

Why does the cheesecake need at least 6 hours of refrigeration?

The cheesecake continues setting and the most proper texture developing throughout the entire refrigerator chilling period. Six hours is the minimum required for the most properly sliceable and the most cleanly cut individual result, but overnight chilling produces the most completely extraordinary flavor development and the most dramatically superior individual texture. Making the cheesecake the day before serving is the most strongly recommended approach.

Can I skip the water bath?

Skipping the water bath dramatically increases the risk of the most undesirable surface cracking and the most uneven individual baking. If a water bath is genuinely impossible, place a separate baking dish filled with one inch of water on the lowest oven rack below the cheesecake, and bake at a reduced 300°F temperature for the most similar gentle and even individual baking environment.

Conclusion

This Triple Berry Cheesecake is the most completely extraordinary and the most deeply beautiful summer celebration cheesecake that makes every gathering feel genuinely and completely magnificent through the most silky cream cheese filling and the most gorgeous three-berry crown of strawberries blueberries and raspberries in every single beautifully chilled and completely irresistible triple berry cheesecake slice.

We hope it brings the same deeply joyful summer berry celebration and the same completely delighted table to your kitchen that it has always brought to ours. Make it, share it, and come back to tell us all about it. With all our love, Maria, Lucia, and Teresa.
