Notes

Make certain to let the cream cheese soften at room temperature or you’ll end up with lumpy cheesecake.
Be sure to allow the crust to cool completely before adding on the cheesecake layer. It will melt if the crust is still hot.
You can chill or eat right away. It’s totally up to you!
Use a sharp knife to get the cleanest cuts possible. I also like to wipe off my knife with a paper towel in-between cuts.
