Spoon the filling over the chilled crust and spread it evenly.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until fully set. Overnight is best for the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up.
Prepare the Topping (optional):
Whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the top of the cheesecake.
Garnish with shaved chocolate or chocolate curls for an extra touch of elegance.
Serve:
Slice and serve chilled. The cheesecake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips for Success:
Use Room Temperature Ingredients: For a smoother filling, make sure your cream cheese is softened and at room temperature.
Chill Thoroughly: This cheesecake needs adequate chilling time to set properly. It also helps to let it sit out for about 10 minutes before slicing to make serving easier.
Customize: You can adjust the amount of Baileys to your taste preference, or even experiment with other liqueurs like Kahlúa or Amaretto for different flavors.
This dessert is sure to impress and is perfect for special occasions or a decadent treat just for yourself. Enjoy!
