FAQs

How many cheesecakes can you bake at once? ›

A: Yes, you can bake two cakes at the same time BUT only with fan assist so the heat can circulate around them. If you are using a conventional oven with a fan, bake them on two racks; one on the middle rack, the other on the bottom rack.

Bake the cheesecakes in a standard 12-count muffin pan. There's no need for a springform pan and no need to mess with a water bath. Mini cheesecakes are not only easier than a full cheesecake, they take half the time to prepare!

Overmixing may lead to cracks and a grainy texture

With a batter mainly composed of cream cheese, sugar, and egg yolks, you can quickly form cracks in your cheesecake with the excess air that comes from overmixing (via Cheesecakes World).

If they are from the same basic recipe and just have some extra flavors, you should be ok, if they are smaller amounts of different recipes, check the instructions carefully or ideally, make them as full pies once and note the actual parameters - random recipes from the Internet can be quite different, not all bloggers ...

Eggs: Three whole eggs hold the cheesecake together. I also add an extra yolk, which enhances the cake's velvety texture. (Whites tend to lighten the cake, which is actually fine — if you don't feel like separating that fourth egg and don't mind some extra airiness in the texture, just add in the whole egg.)

But it's less possible to bake an excellent cheesecake without one. Big, showstopper cheesecakes baked without a water bath are more likely to overbake, which will give them a curdled texture, cracks in the surface, and lopsided tops.

You can absolutely make a cheesecake without a traditional water bath. The traditional water bath provides two elements: a steamy, humid oven environment that prevents your cheesecake from drying out on top and insulation for protecting the cheesecake from drastic temperature changes.

Your oven temperature was too low. Cake requires precise temperatures to cook properly to allow the batter to rise slowly, then set fairly quickly once it reaches maximum volume. If the temperature is too low, the batter rises, but won't set so the structure of the batter collapses before it does set.

Can I open the oven while baking cheesecake? ›

It's tempting to open the oven door when there's a cake in there, we know. But please, don't. This is especially important for flourless cake and cheesecake. Opening the door can create great fluctuations in heat, which can cause your cake to collapse.

What happens if you put too much sour cream in cheesecake? Sour cream adds tanginess and moisture, so if you use too much, it can make the cheesecake too tangy and the additional moisture can make it runny.

E and I are reviewing Trader Joe's Mini Cheesecake Cones. You'll find them in the freezer section. They come four to a box and are described as "almond florentine cones filled with a creamy cheesecake filling."

Founded by Harry Rosen in 1950, Junior's landmark restaurant is known as the home of New York's best cheesecake. For decades, Brooklynites (and other New Yorkers) have come to eat, laugh, and kibbtiz (argue) over cheesecake. In the 1950's, an entire generation came of age at Junior's.

Can you cook 2 or more dishes in the oven at once? Yes. Most people fret when it comes to cooking two dishes at once, but it's your oven's job to keep the internal temperature set to what you selected. It may have to work a little harder when two or more cold dishes are inserted but trust that it will do its job.

All cheesecakes and specialty cakes come in 10-inch sizes, serving 12 – 15 people.

The 10-inch cheesecake serves around 10-12 people, a 7-inch cheesecake serves around 6-8 and a 6-inch cheesecake serves 4-6. Depending on the size of your get-together this season, you can pick the right dessert for you.
