What it concludes

• A double crust cheesecake provides a lot more crunch per slice and makes the cake aesthetically beautiful.
• Par-baking the double crust allows moisture from the custard to escape so the crust stays fully crisp.
• Skipping the water bath avoids the extra complexity and helps prevent cracking caused by large temperature swings.
• Freezing dark sweet cherries provide the perfect amount of tart, fruity contrast to the rich, creamy cheesecake.
• Hot sugar stores heat more effectively than hot water, so hot cherry syrup must be handled with care to avoid skin burns.
