In a shallow heat-safe bowl, add 1/2 cup cold water and sprinkle the gelatin over the top. Set aside ⏱️ 5 minutes to bloom and absorb the water. Microwave gelatin for ⏱️ 30-35 seconds, stirring every ⏱️ 10 seconds. Heat and stir until fully dissolved and liquid looks clear. Scrape any gelatin pieces against the bowl to help them dissolve. With mixer on med-low speed, gradually add gelatin and beat until well incorporated.

Transfer cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least ⏱️ 4 hours or overnight until completely chilled then serve with desired toppings.

How to Make Topping:
10
Add heavy whipping cream to a large mixing bowl along with sugar and vanilla. Use an electric hand mixer to beat on medium/high speed for ⏱️ 2 minutes or until whipped and stiff peaks form. You need it firm enough to pipe but don't overbeat. Transfer to a piping bag with a large star tip and pipe puffs around the cheesecake. Top each puff with a halved or quartered strawberry if desired and serve.
