Step 5: Assemble the Cheesecake
- Top with crunch: Once the cheesecake is fully chilled, sprinkle the strawberry crunch topping evenly over the top.
- Serve: Slice and serve the cheesecake, garnished with fresh strawberries if desired.
Tips for Success
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature for a smooth filling.
- Prevent Cracking: Baking in a water bath can help prevent cracks in the cheesecake. Wrap the springform pan in foil and place it in a larger baking dish filled with water before baking.
- Flavor Variations: Substitute the freeze-dried strawberries with other freeze-dried fruits, such as raspberries or blueberries, for a different flavor.
Storage Instructions
- Refrigerate: Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freeze: You can freeze the cheesecake for up to 3 months. Wrap individual slices in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe container.
