芝士蛋糕 (zhīshì dàngāo) is a Chinese dessert that is often translated as "cheesecake" in English. The term "cheesecake" can refer to a variety of cakes made with cream cheese or other types of cheese as a main ingredient. Some common types of cheesecake include New York-style cheesecake, which is a dense and creamy cheesecake made with cream cheese, eggs, and heavy cream; and Japanese-style cheesecake, which is a lighter, fluffier cheesecake made with whipped egg whites and a small amount of cream cheese. Other variations of cheesecake may include ingredients such as sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. In general, cheesecake is a rich, creamy dessert that is typically served cold and often has a graham cracker or biscuit crust.
