Cheesecake Fluff Recipe

Ingredients:

• 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar (or adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Optional: crushed graham crackers, fresh berries, chocolate chips, or whipped cream for garnish

Instructions:

Step 1: Whip the Cream

1. In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

2. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and beat until fully combined and smooth.

Step 3: Fold in the Whipped Cream

1. Spoon the cheesecake fluff into serving bowls or cups.
2. Garnish with crushed graham crackers, fresh berries, or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor, if desired.
