Pour the filling

Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust in the springform pan. Smooth out the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Freeze and garnish

Place the cheesecake in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until firm. Before serving, decorate the top with a sprinkle of matcha powder and a few fresh berries for an extra touch of elegance.
