With so many varieties, consistencies and flavors, you can try a hundred different cheesecake recipes and only experience a sampling of what this rich treat has to offer. The fun of cheesecake is in the creating and the tasting. After all, the journey is half of the fun of getting there.
You won't need any special tools to begin your cheesecake adventure, although most bakers agree a cheesecake pan helps you turn out a better product. A cheesecake pan, or springform pan, is a high baking pan with a bottom that releases to make removing the cake easier. Aside from that, you'll need a mixer, your ingredients and your imagination.
Tips for Cheesecake Success
Cheesecake is fun to make, but it tends to be crack-prone and a bit delicate.
Before you fire up the oven, here are some quick tips to help you make a great-tasting and appetizing-looking cheesecake:
- Allow cream cheese to soften before attempting to mix it. The best way is to let it sit on the counter or table for about 30 minutes.
- Use room temperature eggs.
- Don't overbeat your cheesecake batter; this can cause cracks in your cake. Beat on medium speed.
- Try not to open the oven door while your cake is cooking.
- For best flavor and consistency, serve your cheesecake after it's been in the fridge for 12-24 hours.
The marriage of cheesecake and chocolate is a match made in heaven. If you love decadence, then you'll love this recipe.
