Made this recipe twice in one day in two different ovens, two different cooks, both pies cracked. Something is wrong with either the recipe or the bake time. <<< Response from Kraft Kitchens Expert, Mary ~ Cheesecake recipes are very tricky. If the batter is over beaten, a lot of air is added to the mixture. When it is baked, cracking will occur. A consumer comment suggests to cool the cheesecake in the turned off oven. Sometimes this works and sometimes not. >>>

I made this cheesecake for Christmas last year from a recipr out of your magazine. Everyone went crazy over it! I have made it a few more times since then and even changed the recipe a little. Every time I make it it's a big hit! And so easy too!!

I thought the taste was wonderful but that it was dry. I think I will try the pan of water that the other person spoke of and see if this helps.
