This is the best cheesecake I have ever made or eaten! I think the mascarpone is key and the balsamic strawberries is a must. It elevates this cheesecake to a different level. Recipe is from Wente Vineyards Restaurant in Livermore, California.

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the cheesecake to set properly. I think I may have overbeaten the cream cheese. The flavor was still good, but the texture was a bit off.
