- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
- If using heavy cream, whip it separately until soft peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
- Add the whipped topping and carefully fold it in for a light, airy texture.
- Stir in the chopped Snickers bars.
- Add pink food coloring and mix until the desired shade is reached.
- Assemble the Cheesecake

- Serve and Enjoy
- Once fully set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan.
