Here is a recipe i recently tried and got rave reviews. but i didnt use the crust they make, i just bought ready made ones from the grocery store. Served with some homemade strawberry sauce and it was heavenly. One of the guests said it tasted just like cheesecake factory cheesecake.

^did you really bake your cheesecake for 1 hour and 15 minutes? I tried the recipe last night and had only baked the cake for 40 minutes and it started getting hard in the middle and cracked in half when it was cooled. :confused: I saw Paula Deen make cheesecake on TV and she said you only gotta bake the cake of this size for 30-40 mins and you know it is done when the sides are fully cooked and the middle of it is still ‘jiggly’ when it’s gently shaken.

btw, I love making no-bake cheesecakes, and I’ve tried many different toppings which include peaches, pineapple, strwaberries, raspberries…the best of them all is peaches. They taste soo good! :k: I’m trying chocolate topping with strawberry sauce this time. Let’s see how this combo turns out! :slight_smile:

CA, i didnt bake for the full time listed because i made two small ones instead of one big cake like they do in the recipe. I think mine also took around 40 mins. I have a habit of checking the product after 30 mns anyways no matter waht the time listed is ,so i probably didnt let it overcook that way. Also, sometimes the cheesecake do crack down. I have never tried this but some reviewers suggest putting a pan of hot water in the oven while baking the cake. This provides moisture adn somehow prevents it from cracking.
