Cheesecake is a popular dessert made primarily from cream cheese, sugar, and eggs, which are blended together to create a smooth filling. It is typically baked in a crust made from crushed cookies or graham crackers, although some variations are served without a crust. Cheesecake can be flavored with various ingredients, such as vanilla, chocolate, or fruit, making it versatile and appealing to many tastes. There are two main types of cheesecake: New York-style and Italian-style. New York-style cheesecake is dense and rich, while Italian-style cheesecake is lighter and often made with ricotta cheese. Cheesecake is enjoyed worldwide and can be found in many restaurants and bakeries, often served plain or topped with fruit, chocolate, or caramel.
