Tips:

  • Bring cream cheese and butter to room temperature before mixing: This will ensure a smooth and creamy filling.
  • Use fresh vanilla extract for the best flavor: Artificial vanilla extract will not provide the same depth of flavor.
  • Do not overmix the cheesecake batter: Overmixing can result in a dense and crumbly cheesecake.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before serving: This will give the cheesecake time to set and firm up.
  • Serve the cheesecake with fresh fruit or whipped cream for added flavor.
