Can you stop the cenre of a baked cheesecake from drooping?

Beat your eggs on the lowest speed possible before adding them a bit at a time to the cream cheese mixture.Scrape the sides of the bowl to smooth out lumps before adding the next bit of eggs.Also try placing your cheesecake pan in a larger cake pan. Fill with water to 2/3 up the side of your cheesecake pan. (If using a springform pan, wrap the pan with foil to keep water from seeping in.)When the center of the cheesecake is set, but still a litle jiggly, remove all from the oven and allow the cheesecake to cool in the water until it's at room temperature. Then chill.

What is a water bath used in a cheesecake recipe?

I didn't understand if you wanted to know WHAT a water bath is, or WHY its used, so I gave you both answers. "What" a water bath is, is when you place a cheesecake in a baking sheet with sides, you pour in hot water around the cheesecake after the spingform pan has been wrapped with foil so the water wont seep in. "Why" its used is, so the cheesecake's surface wont crack when its cooled. This method works sometimes but not all the time. If you dont want people to see the cracks, just cover the surface with something. I like to use whipped cream, Oreo crumbs, and stewed fruit toppings.


What does flour do to a cheesecake?

When you add flour to a cheesecake recipe or see a recipe that calls for flour, the purpose is to adjust the texture and the way the cheesecake is baked. When there is flour or another starch present in a cheesecake it makes the texture denser and more cake-like. When there isn't a starch present in a cheesecake, this is the kind of recipe where usually it calls for a spring form pan, a water bath and lower temperature and this often will result in a smooth and creamy texture.


How many ways can you bake cheesecake?

Cheesecakes can either be baked in a springform pan, or you make a no-bake cheesecake, which is just as yummy.

You can also vary your cheesecake by adding whatever you want to it, such as fruit or crushed up candy bars. The possibilities are endless.
