FAQs

Why is cheesecake the best dessert? ›

The delicate balance and textures of flavors are amazing. The sweetness and the salt going perfectly together is what makes this dessert so unique and is the main reason behind the popularity of cheesecakes.

How to enhance store bought cheesecake? ›

There are so many topping options out there. Oreos, Stella Doro cookies, M&M's, twizzlers, chocolate truffles- the options are endless! Using store-bought caramel, or even pie filling as a simple topping can also elevate your cake, and would be a real game changer.

Why bake cheesecake? ›

The differences in ingredients and preparation methods are what create the texture. Both may be smooth and creamy but not in the same way. A baked cheesecake usually has a silky consistency and firmer texture. A no-bake cheesecake will have a lighter, softer, almost fluffy texture, often more like a pudding or mousse.

Is cheesecake healthier than cake? ›

Cheesecake typically has about the same calories as an iced chocolate cake and roughly 30 per cent fewer calories than a chocolate mud cake. It also has on average 2-3 times as much calcium, less sugar and more protein than either kind of chocolate cake.

Which tastes better baked or no bake cheesecake? ›

They both are great in their own way. It all narrows down to your personal preferences. If you enjoy dense and velvety cake, a baked cheesecake is the one for you. Or if you crave some light and airy dessert post-dinner, go for the no-bake one.

What does adding an extra egg to cheesecake do? ›

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.)

What happens if you put too much sour cream in a 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.

Why do you put water in the oven when baking cheesecake? ›

Why Should I Bake Cheesecake in a Water Bath?
  1. Cheesecakes Are Egg-Heavy: Eggs need a moist and humid environment to properly rise and avoid drying out or burning.
  2. Prevent Cracks in the Surface: The steam from the hot water will lift the cheesecake up slowly and evenly, reducing the risk of cracks on the surface.

Can I put two cheesecakes in the oven at the same time? ›

Q: Can you double a cheesecake recipe and cook them in 2 pans at the same time? 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.

What happens if you overmix cheesecake batter? ›

When making your filling, overmixing can lead to incorporating too much air into the batter. Once baked, the air bubbles will burst, and the cheesecake will fall and crack. THE FIX: The number one reason why you'd overbeat your batter is because you're having dificulty incorporating cold ingredients.

What makes cheesecake special? ›

The major component of this dessert's delicious flavour is undoubtedly high-quality cream cheese. After that, you add sugar, full cream, or sour cream. For a baked variant, some recipes ask for eggs and flour, while those for unbaked cheesecakes call for gelatin or its plant-based equivalent (agar-agar).

Why do people like cheesecake? ›

Cheesecake is preferable to cake, whether you're simply trying to reduce your sugar intake or have a food allergy or sensitivity. It's a dessert that anyone can enjoy thanks to its delicious flavour, creamy texture, and nutrient-rich ingredients.

What is the greatest dessert in the world? ›

Why is cheesecake better? ›

Unlike regular cakes that often contain artificial flavorings and food dyes, cheesecake is made using natural ingredients like fresh fruit or spices like cinnamon or ginger. Cheesecake is also made with healthier ingredients. The cake is often processed with bleached flour, sugar, and vegetable shortening.
