\nMake the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat 16 oz of softened cream cheese until smooth. Add \u00be cup sweetened condensed milk, \u00bd cup Greek yogurt (or cream), \u2153 cup yuzu juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until the mixture is creamy and well-combined.
\nCombine with Agar: Slowly add the slightly cooled agar mixture to the cheesecake filling while mixing gently. Stir until everything is well incorporated.
\nAssemble the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Make sure the filling is evenly spread across the crust.
\nSet the Cheesecake: Refrigerate the cheesecake for 4\u20136 hours or overnight until it is fully set and firm to the touch.
\nTop & Serve: Before serving, garnish the cheesecake with whipped cream, citrus zest, fresh mint leaves, and edible flowers for a beautiful and festive touch. Serve and enjoy the refreshing tang of yuzu in every bite!
