How to Test Cheesecake Doneness

To avoid overbaking a cheesecake, check for doneness at the minimum baking time by gently shaking the pan. If the cheesecake is done, the edge should be slightly puffed and it will be set except for a small area in the center that will be soft and jiggly. Do not insert a knife into the center as this may cause the cheesecake to crack during cooling.

So delicious! I make this for all our family and friend get togethers and now it's requested! I also drizzle carmel over the top of it. For a lighter cheesecake this can be made with splenda and neufatchel cheese and it still has great flavor!! A must try!

It was good but on the bland side. I'd like to add some sort of spice or maybe more vanilla. It just seemed to be missing something....

I made this for a weekly work dessert dish, and they all loved it and wanted the recipe. I didnt have the almons slices so I used a little almond extract to shake the apples in, I also coated the apples in the cinnamon sugar instead of sprinkling on top. It was definately a hit!!!

This cheese cake is delicious. Everyone loved it. Instead of cut fresh apples I used a can of apples for pies. Made it easier and tasted great!1

This is so easy to make!! My mom and dad request this for dessert when they come over especially when extended family comes with so that they can experience it.

It seems all sorts of cheese pies and desserts call for Graham Cracker Crusts. I feel graham cracker flavor is too strong and clashes with the flavors of the fillings. So I used a flour, sugar, butter "Crumble crust" as was used in the 50's and earlier years. It was fabulous. Rating the recipe 3 because of the crust.
