- Before serving, remove the cheesecake from the pan and top with strawberry puree and additional sliced strawberries.
Notes
Use room-temperature cream cheese for a smooth texture. For a vegan option, replace cream cheese with a plant-based version and use coconut cream. Always chill thoroughly before slicing for clean, firm slices.
