Cook over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring until thickened.

Remove from heat and let cool completely.

5. Make the Chocolate Ganache

Heat cream in a small saucepan until just simmering.

Remove from heat, add chocolate chips, and let sit 2–3 minutes.

Stir until smooth and glossy. Cool slightly.

6. Assemble the Cheesecake

Pour ganache on top, letting it drip over the edges.

Chill for 30 minutes to set.

Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and fresh cherries.
