# Instructions:
01 -
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix everything together until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even crust. Once done, place the crust in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
02 -
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well to combine.
03 -
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined. Add the sour cream and fold it in gently until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
04 -
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Gently press half of the raspberries, blackberries, and peach slices into the cheesecake filling, setting aside the rest for topping later. Cover and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set properly.
05 -
When the cheesecake is set, carefully remove it from the springform pan. Top with the remaining fresh raspberries, blackberries, and peach slices. Drizzle the berry syrup over the top of the fruit.
06 -
Pipe whipped cream around the edges if desired and sprinkle toasted almond slices on top for an extra crunch and lovely decoration.
07 -
Slice the cheesecake and serve chilled. Enjoy the refreshing flavors of summer in every bite!
# Notes:

Ensure the cheesecake chills for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, for the best texture and flavor.
