Prepare the Crust

Assemble the Cheesecake

  2. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set properly.
Serve the Cheesecake

Notes

For the best results, use room-temperature cream cheese to prevent lumps in your filling. Chill the cheesecake for as long as possible to achieve the perfect texture. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
