Set aside (room temperature or refrigerator, either is fine) while you make the filling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CHEESECAKE FILLING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Place cream cheese in a large bowl and, using an electric mixer, beat until smooth and creamy.16 oz cream cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add powdered sugar and stir until combined.1 cup powdered sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stir in vanilla extract and lemon juice, pausing to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. \u00a01 teaspoon vanilla extract,2 teaspoons lemon juice<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add sour cream and stir well. \u00a0\u2153 cup sour cream<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pour heavy cream into a separate, medium-sized bowl (preferably a chilled metal bowl). Whisk on high speed until stiff peaks are achieved (mixture will be thick, fluffy, voluminous and will hold a peak).1 \u00bd cup heavy cream<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using a spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into cream cheese mixture until smooth and well-combined and mixture is uniform.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spread cheesecake mixture evenly into prepared graham cracker crust (be sure to fill the crust completely, if there is any gapping between the filling and the crust it will crumble when cut into). \u00a01 graham cracker crust<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Top with whipped cream topping before serving (see note).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until thick, fluffy, and stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe over cheesecake before serving (or after the cheesecake has had time to set). I use an Ateco 846 for piping the swirls.\u00be cup heavy cream,\u00bc cup powdered sugar,\u00bd teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Notes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Whipped cream topping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I prefer to add the whipped cream before serving but this topping does maintain its shape and can be prepared and added to the cheesecake at any point after at least 2 hours of chilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I store this cheesecake right in the springform pan, covered with foil or plastic wrap (remove the collar for slicing and serving and replace for storing).
