Yes, feel free to add other flavors to the filling, such as a pinch of cinnamon or a tablespoon of sugar-free coffee extract. -
How long will this cheesecake last in the refrigerator?
The cheesecake will typically last for 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Make sure to store it covered to prevent it from drying out.
