Tips:

  • Use high-quality cream cheese for the best flavor and texture. Full-fat cream cheese is best, as it will give your cheesecake a rich, creamy texture.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before you start baking. This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients and prevent lumps.
  • Don't overbeat the cheesecake batter. Overbeating can make the cheesecake tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking and will give it a more even bake.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly and will give you a cleaner slice.
