Tips:
- For a smooth cheesecake filling: Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature and beat it until it's light and fluffy before adding the other ingredients.
- To prevent the cheesecake from cracking: Bake it in a water bath. This will help to create a moist environment that will prevent the cheesecake from drying out and cracking.
- For a golden brown crust: Brush the edges of the crust with melted butter before baking. This will help the crust to brown evenly.
- To make sure the cheesecake is fully set: Let it cool completely in the refrigerator before serving. This will help the cheesecake to firm up and slice cleanly.
