I have made this recipe 3 times and my husband and I love it! I prebake the crust at ' for ten minutes and I bake the cheesecake on top of a water bath.
This helps to bake it evenly and helps it to not crack on top. It is also important to allow it to cool inside the oven with the door only slightly cracked to prevent cooler air to rush in the oven. This also causes cracks in the cake.
The taste has a touch of sweet but not overly so. Shelisah Piggee. This is a great recipe. I tried it twice and nailed it the 2nd time around. It's very creamy, not too sweet. Served it with lemon curd and strawberry sauce on the side. Notes: -This is more of a 10" and not a 9" -I put foil around my pan to prevent it from cracking -Started it on but then turned it down to after about 10 mins in.
These notes are what I did the 2nd time around and got a great cheesecake Read More. First off, it says 9 inch pan. I used 9 inch and there was WAY too much filling for it. It started settling and overflowed - a lot. I used a waterbath, it still cracked a lot and was very brown on top regardless of using minimum cooking time. Not a big deal, planned to use a topping. Country cherry Tastes amazing.
Everyone thought it was to DIE for. Never buying premade cheesecake again. Making my second one tonight! Using 10inch pan, baking 1hr at degrees.
Topping with raspberries, blackberries and strawberry medley. Exactly what I was hoping for-- easy, creamy, delicious. Method 3. Wash and dry your hands. Before touching the cheesecake, thoroughly wash your hands with warm water and soap.
Rinse your hands to remove the soap residue and dry them completely. Use 1 finger to touch the center of the cheesecake. Gently touch the surface of the center of the cheesecake with 1 or 2 fingers. You want to check the doneness in the middle of the cake, rather than near the edges.
Look for a firm surface. If the surface of the cheesecake has a little bit of give but feels firm, the cake is done. If your finger sinks into the cake or comes away with batter on it, the cake needs more time in the oven. Bake it for another 5 minutes before checking it again. Method 4. Check for a little bit of puffing and browning at the edges.
The filling should still be pale, rather than golden. Look for firmness around the edges of the filling. Only the middle 2 inches 5 cm should still be jiggly rather than firm when your cheesecake is perfectly baked. Take it out when the surface is no longer shiny. Make sure the entire cake, including the soft center, have lost their shine before removing the cake from the oven.
Turn off the heat and let the cake sit in the oven with the door cracked about 1 inch 2. At that point, take the pan out of the oven, remove the springform pan from the water bath if applicable , and let the cheesecake cool completely before taking it out of the springform pan.
I don't feel comfortable doing the warm bath and foil around the pan. Will the other steps and ideas work without doing that? The Hungry Bites. Yes, you can test if a cheesecake is done with the above methods even if you don't use the waterbath method. The waterbath helps the cheesecake to bake more evenly, since it prevents the edges from cooking too fast and the center remaining uncooked.
Not Helpful 0 Helpful 6. How do I know when a cheesecake is done if it's a no bake, set in the fridge cake? Rachel Lyon-Student. Depending on the type of cheesecake, usually it is fine to take out if it has developed a skin, and is firm in the middle. The longer the cheesecake remains in the oven after it has reached its pull temperature, the tighter the egg proteins will become, and the greater the likelihood of your cake cracking.
A super-fast instant-read thermometer like the Thermapen Mk4 makes it easy to perform multiple quick checks without leaving the oven door open too long. Some people wait until the top of the cheesecake cracks as a cue to its doneness. Testing the internal temperature is the best method to know exactly when to pull the cheesecake from the oven so as not to overcook the delicate egg protein. As soon as the cheesecake cools to room temperature, it should be covered and refrigerated for at least 8 hours—overnight is even better.
If you plan ahead, freezing the cheesecake is even better. The firmer the cheesecake is, the cleaner the slices will be when served.
Keep a few of these handy in the freezer for a quick dessert anytime! Mix gently. Starting with softened cream cheese and being patient while mixing on low speed is the best way to ensure a smooth filling. Scrape down the bowl after mixing in each ingredient. When mixing the ingredients together the consistency starts off quite thick with the cream cheese and thins out with the addition of each ingredient. The batter that sticks to the sides of the bowl—and hides in the bottom of the bowl—needs to be scraped down completely so it combines evenly.
How you prepare your graham cracker crust is a matter of taste. For a firm, crunchier crust, pre-bake the crust before you pour the cake batter onto it.
Some recipes for cheesecake call for placing the pan in a hot water bath when cooking.
