Additional Notes/Tips to Enhance Flavor

  • Let the roast beef rest before slicing; this helps lock in those juices.
  • If you like extra mocha flavor, drizzle some espresso over the cheesecake before serving.
  • Add a dollop of whipped coconut cream to the cheesecake for extra indulgence.
  • Feel free to adjust the level of espresso in the cheesecake to your taste—stronger coffee, stronger flavor!
