Notes
Here’s another method for putting this recipe together:
1. Line a 9-inch springform pan with wax paper on the sides and bottom. I like to make and freeze my crust.
2. Remove from freezer and pour a thin layer of sauce on bottom.
3. Return to freezer and freeze again.
4. Remove again and pour cheezecake filling on top. Return to freezer.
5. Remove from freezer and pour the remaining sauce on the top.
6. Top with fresh berries. Freeze another 2 hours.
7. Always remove 30 minutes prior to serving.
8. Blending of colors may occur if you don’t freeze between layers but that way is beautiful as well.
