How long should I refrigerate the strawberry cheesecake?
It's best to prepare the cheesecake a day ahead. Keep it in the fridge overnight. You can make the cheesecake in the morning. Let it set about 6 hours.
The recipe calls for low-fat cream cheese, can regular cream cheese be used?
This recipe can use a full fat cream cheese. I prefer to use a low-calorie cheese.
How do I store the cheesecake?
Until ready to eat, keep the cake in the fridge.
