Tips:
- Use fresh cherries. Fresh cherries will give your cheesecakes the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen cherries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your cheesecakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cheesecakes in a water bath. This will help prevent them from cracking.
- Let the cheesecakes cool completely before serving. This will help them set properly.
- Garnish the cheesecakes with fresh cherries or whipped cream. This will make them look and taste even better.
