The cheesecake flavor pairs beautifully with fresh fruit, making it both indulgent and refreshing. It’s a dish that feels like a hug from the inside, and it’s incredibly easy to whip up, even on a busy weeknight.
This cheesecake fruit salad is a versatile dish that pairs well with a variety of sides. For a light and refreshing meal, serve it alongside grilled chicken or fish.
