Ingredients
  

Fruit Topping
  • 3 cups mixed fruit berries, peaches, or cherries
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice fresh
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water for slurry

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Saucepan
  • Spatula
  • Measuring Cups
  • Freezer
  • Tray
  • Storage Container
  • Whisk
  • Fine Mesh Strainer
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Combine fruit, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan.
  2. Cook over medium heat until the fruit softens slightly.
  3. Whisk cornstarch and water together until completely smooth.
  4. Stir the slurry into the fruit mixture while mixing continuously.
  5. Cook until the topping becomes glossy and lightly thickened.
  6. Cool completely before spreading over cheesecake.
  7. Chill briefly for easier assembly and cleaner presentation.

Notes

For a softer topping, reduce cooking time slightly. For a thicker consistency, cook longer after adding the slurry. Freeze cooled topping in airtight containers for up to three months and thaw overnight before use. Add toppings after cheesecake is fully chilled for easier assembly. Customize flavors with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, mangoes, peaches, or cherries. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to one week.
