Mascarpone Cheesecake with Dulce de Leche Drizzle

I love cheesecake. Especially homemade cheesecake! I don't really make it very often though. Really only for special occasions. I made a Chocolate Biscoff Cheesecake around this time last year and it was TO. DIE. FOR. I mean that too. I've received requests to make it for friends' birthdays, anniversary's, etc. It's a pretty special cheesecake.

I decided to make a different kind of cheesecake this time. Not chocolate, and I wanted to use mascarpone cheese instead of the usual cream cheese. Mascarpone is a creamy Italian cheese, very similar to cream cheese, but better. At least I think so. And I think it made the texture of this cheesecake absolutely perfect.

You could definitely eat this cheesecake as is, just plain. But the addition of the a little dulce de leche over the top is phenomenal. You could also top it with fresh strawberries or raspberries.
