In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated with the butter.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed glass to create an even layer. Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.
Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened
cream cheese until smooth and
creamy. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy
cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Spread the
cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate the
cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Prepare the Berry Sauce:
In a medium saucepan, combine the berries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries release their juices and the mixture comes to a simmer.
Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Serve the Cheesecake:
Once the cheesecake is fully set, remove it from the refrigerator. Run a knife around the edges of the springform pan to release the
cheesecake, then remove the sides of the pan.
Slice the
cheesecake and serve each piece topped with a generous spoonful of the berry sauce.
