Crust

  • Place the shortbread cookies in a food processor and pulse to a fine crumb.

  • In a small bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with the butter. Press onto the bottom and up one inch on the sides of a prepared 9 or 10 inch springform pan.

  • Place pan on a baking sheet, bake at 325° for 10 minutes.

  • Cool on a wire rack.

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the cheeses, sugar, lime juice, zest and vanilla until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beat on low speed just until combined. Pour over crust. *optional water bath method

  • Bake at 325° for 50-60 minutes or until center is just set and top appears dull (do not overcook or the top will crack).

  • Remove springform pan from the oven, and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully run a knife around the edge of pan to loosen; cool 1 hour longer.

  • Refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight. Before serving, prepare topping and Strawberry Glaze.

  • * If you want to have a perfect top of your cheesecake, place your prepared springform pan on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. square). Securely wrap foil around pan. Continue with the process and before placing in the oven, place springform pan in a large baking pan; add 1 in. of hot water to larger pan. Since I almost always put a topping on my cheesecake, I rarely use the water bath method, but if you want a perfect top to your cheesecake, give it a try!

  • (After your cheesecake has properly set up, you can continue with the topping.)

Topping

  • In the bowl of your mixer, add the heavy cream and sprinkle the gelatin on top of the heavy cream and allow it to set for a two minutes.

  • Add the sugar and whip till it is become whipped cream.

  • Place whipped cream in a pastry bag and make a ring of whipped cream on the top of the cheesecake to help keep the strawberries in place.

  • For the glaze puree 1 cup strawberries with the sugar, mix the cornstarch into the water and add to the strawberries and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

  • Cook and stir until mixture is thick and clear. (a drop of red food coloring may be used if it is not red enough)

  • Cool to room temperature.

  • Clean and remove the tops of the remaining berries, place on of the top chilled cheesecake.

  • Pour the glaze over the berries and chill one hour before serving
