For a deeper flavor, try using brown butter in the crust.
A touch of lemon zest in the cream cheese filling brightens the flavors.
If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular pie dish, but it will be more difficult to remove the torte.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
