FAQ
Do I need a water bath?
Yes, it helps prevent cracks and keeps the texture creamy.
Can I make this ahead of time?
Definitely! Cheesecake actually tastes better the next day after chilling.
Do I have to strain the raspberry sauce?
Not at all — leaving the seeds adds texture, but straining gives a smoother finish.
