7. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with caramel sauce or strawberry sauce.

How to Serve Fried Cheesecake

Fried Cheesecake is best served warm! Dust it with powdered sugar and drizzle your choice of caramel or strawberry sauce on top. You can also add some whipped cream for an extra special touch.

How to Store Fried Cheesecake

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in a hot oven to get them crispy again, but they’re best fresh!

Tips to Make Fried Cheesecake

• Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the cheesecake – this ensures a crispy texture.
• Don’t overcrowd the pot while frying. Fry in batches for even cooking.
• Experiment with different toppings like chocolate sauce or fresh berries.

Variation

You can try using different types of cheesecake, like chocolate or berry-flavored, for a fun twist. Also, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for added flavor!
