Steps
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted unsalted butter, and granulated sugar in a medium bowl until resembling wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and set aside.
- Beat softened cream cheese in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully incorporated and fluffy.
- Gently fold in mini marshmallows into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, ensuring even distribution without overmixing.
- Pour heavy whipping cream into a separate bowl and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. If using gelatin, dissolve it in cold water per package instructions before mixing into the whipped cream.
- Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and marshmallow mixture until smooth and fluffy, ensuring no streaks remain.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Optionally create a swirl or keep it flat.
- Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight to set.
- Remove the sides of the springform pan. Slice with a knife dipped in hot water for clean edges, and serve with fresh berries or chocolate sauce.

Notes
