Tips

  • To ensure a smooth and lump-free cheesecake batter, use room temperature ingredients and beat the cream cheese, sugar, and sour cream until light and creamy before adding the eggs one at a time.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate graham crackers for the crust. If you prefer a sweeter crust, add an extra tablespoon of sugar to the mixture.
  • To prevent cracks in the cheesecake, bake it in a water bath. Place the cheesecake pan inside a larger roasting pan filled with hot water.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before refrigerating it. This will help it set properly and prevent it from sinking.
  • For a smooth and creamy caramel sauce, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of butter for extra richness.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can caramelize the sugar on top of the cheesecake by placing it under a preheated broiler for a few minutes. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
  • Serve the cheesecake with fresh berries, whipped cream, or ice cream for a decadent dessert.
