For an extra touch of flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to prevent lumps in the topping. Sifting the confectioners' sugar will result in a smoother and more refined topping. To prevent the top from browning too quickly, loosely tent the pan with foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. Chess Cake is best served chilled, as this enhances the flavors and textures. Store leftover Chess Cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
