Notes

Add a pinch of salt to the crust for enhanced flavor. Store in the fridge covered with plastic wrap for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Always bring the cheesecake to room temperature before serving to enhance flavors. Top with fresh berries, drizzle with caramel or chocolate sauce, or dust with powdered sugar for a beautiful presentation.
