I would recommend using a springform pan for this cheesecake. It makes it much easier to remove the cheesecake from the pan.

This cheesecake is really rich. I would recommend serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

The chocolate ganache was a bit too thick for my liking. I would recommend thinning it out with some milk or cream.

This cheesecake was a little too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier cheesecake.

The crust was a little too crumbly for my liking, but the cheesecake itself was delicious.

This cheesecake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but this one was really good. The chocolate and cherry flavors were really complementary.
