Notes

Make sure all ingredients, especially the cream cheese, are at room temperature before beginning to ensure a smooth and creamy filling. For added flavor, consider topping the cheesecake with whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving. To prevent cracks, allow the cheesecake to cool gradually and avoid over-mixing the batter.
