Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially the maple syrup. Look for Grade A, dark amber syrup for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help to ensure a smooth and creamy cheesecake.
  • Don't overbeat the cheesecake batter. Overbeating can make the cheesecake tough and dense.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath to prevent it from cracking. Place the cheesecake pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly and develop its full flavor.
