- Pour the cream cheese filling over the chilled crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Smooth the top of the cheesecake with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
- Chill the Cheesecake:
- Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm and set.
- Add the Topping:
- Once the cheesecake has chilled, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan.
- If using fruit pie filling, spread it evenly over the top of the cheesecake.
- If using fresh berries, arrange them decoratively on top of the cheesecake.
- Serve:
- Slice the cheesecake into wedges and serve chilled. Enjoy!
Tips:
- For a smoother filling, make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
