Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Prepare using PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese.

How to Bake in Springform Pan

Substitute 9-inch springform pan for the 13x9-inch pan. Do not line pan with foil. Prepare cheesecake as directed, increasing the baking time to 1 hour or until center is almost set. Run small knife around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool completely. Remove rim. Refrigerate as directed. (Note: If using a dark nonstick 9-inch springform pan, reduce oven temperature to 300°F.)

My husband made these for our first date 7 years ago. Right then I knew He was a keeper! We make them at least once a year when we celebrate the anniversary of our first date. They are really yummy, but if you want to have 1 1/2 c. of chopped Oreos in the filling, plus more to sprinkle on top, you'll need another package of Oreos. The packages are now 1 oz. less, but even if they were the same size I don't think there would be enough Oreos for that amount in the filling plus more on top.

I've made this recipe soooo many times! I usually use the neufchatel (or however you spell it) and it comes out great. I will admit that after a while the crust does get a little soggy, but that's really only if you leave it in the fridge for a long time.

My grandson loved this for his birthday, but for several of us, it tasted strongly of egg. I'd use only 2 eggs, or not use this recipe at all.

i just recently got the tools to make amazing deserts and ive really been into cheesecakes, but there are a lot of posers out there that arent really traditional cheesecakes like you would get a restaurant. and its been difficult to reproduce good recipes that turned out that way. this one was amazing, i actualy tweaked it and put it into 3, 9" pie tins and used no aluminum foil or greese. my crust turned out perfect and crispy, i used butter, and honestly recomend it. many margerines are different and will make your crusts gross and soggy. stick with butter for your cheesecake crusts :) but all in all superb recipe! :)

We make this recipe often and have not had a bad cheesecake yet! The only thing that we don't do is use the aluminum foil, I just use non-stick cooking spray for the pan. We also using a 9x13 white corning ware dish. Turns out perfect everytime. One of our favorites!!!

made it for Halloween with the orange oreos....brought it to work and it was gone by 9:30 am....I think the "orange" or what makes the oreo filling orange was a bit bitter, but it didn't really take away from the dessert....will definately make again... No problems with the recipe as is....used a few more for the crust because I like it thick!

I was not very fond of this recipe at all. First of all, one package of Oreos was not nearly enough. The crust was very soggy, and the overall taste and consistency was nothing like cheesecake. I will not be making this again.
