  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
  4. Stir in the orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

Notes

To make the crust thicker, add more butter. Chill longer for a firmer texture. This recipe can be modified using lemon juice instead of orange for a twist.
