Tips:

  • Prep your microwave: Make sure it's clean and has a rotating carousel. If not, you'll need to stop the microwave halfway through cooking and manually rotate the dish.
  • Use the right dish: Glass or ceramic dishes are best for microwaving cheesecake. Metal dishes can cause uneven cooking and create hot spots.
  • Don't overcook: Cheesecake is delicate, so it's important to watch it closely while it's cooking. Overcooked cheesecake will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let it cool: Cheesecake needs time to cool and set. Refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
  • Garnish it up: Before serving, garnish your cheesecake with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate shavings.
