• 1 cup granulated sugar (adjust slightly for sweetness preference)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure extract for best flavor)
• 3 large eggs (room temperature blends easier)
• 1 cup marshmallow fluff (for that signature swampland look)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.

8. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent sudden temperature changes.
9. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set completely.
10. Before serving, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks and gently fold in the marshmallow fluff. Spread over the cheesecake for a fluffy, cloud-like topping.

Each slice of this cheesecake offers a creamy, velvety texture with a sweet marshmallow topping that melts in your mouth. Serve it with a drizzle of caramel or a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers for added crunch and flavor.
