Notes

For a smoother cheesecake, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature. Use a water bath to prevent cracking and ensure even baking. Store wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or individually wrapped portions in the freezer for longer storage. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving. Top with whipped cream and garnish for an elegant presentation.
