Cheesecake Tips - 1

Baking Cheesecake
Most Cheesecakes tend to get over-baked because, while they may look underdone, they are actually done when the center is still wobbly. At this stage, residual heat will "carry over" and the center will continue to cook.
Remove cheesecake from the oven to cool on a rack, or you can simply leave the door of the oven closed, turn off the heat and let the cheesecake cool for at least an hour. This helps prevent the cheesecake from sinking in the center. After chilling, the once-wiggly center should firm up just fine. Great tips....
