Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth batter. You can swap creamy peanut butter for crunchy, and use dairy-free alternatives if needed. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months. For best results, let the cheesecake chill overnight before slicing for a clean cut. Enjoy this crowd-pleasing dessert at your next gathering!
