Decadently rich and creamy, cheesecake is the perfect dessert to serve when entertaining, since it benefits from being refrigerated overnight, leaving you one less thing to worry about on the big day. But there’s no need to save making cheesecakes for special occasions. They come together quickly, and can even be made in miniature form for packing into lunch boxes or picnic baskets.
