  • In another bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated.

3. Assemble the Cheesecake

  • Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.

  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight for best results.

4. Prepare the Kiwi Topping
