This is an easy way to make cheesecake for a large party of people and it is every bit as good as it's traditional counterpart. Instead of the strawberries I used the canned cherry pie filling and spooned it over the cut pieces right before serving it. That way it drizzles down over the edge and is a beautiful as well as delicious dessert.
