Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise
Enjoy a serving of this indulgent cheesecake on special occasions.
Note
If using a dark nonstick springform pan, reduce oven temperature to 300ºF.
How to Make Chocolate Curls
Warm a square of BAKER'S Baking Chocolate by microwaving it, unwrapped, on HIGH for a few seconds or just until you can smudge the chocolate with your thumb. Hold the square steadily and draw a peeler slowly over flat bottom of square, allowing a thin layer of chocolate to curl as it is peeled off the bottom of the square to make long, delicate curls. Use the same technique along the narrow side of the square to make short curls.
