Cheesecake Tips
- Make your cheesecake the day before you actually need it. Cheesecake needs to cool in the refrigerator before serving. This helps it set up and also helps the flavors come together. It needs to chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
- When using a spring form pan, be sure that the side is properly fastened and the bottom is securely in place. You don’t want your batter to run out all over your oven! Covering the sides and bottoms of the pan with foil helps prevent this too.
- Don’t over swirl your raspberry sauce. You don’t want it totally mixed into the cheesecake mixture.
- Water bath: as I mentioned above I have made a cheesecake with and without and have had it crack with a water bath and had it not crack without a waterbath so I usually don’t use one. I figure if there are cracks, I can just cover them up with whipped cream!
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I store cheesecake
Cheesecake will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week, just cover it with foil to keep it from drying out on top.
Can I freeze cheesecake?
Cheesecake freezes really well. I like to cut individual slices before freezing. Wrap it tightly in foil and put it in an air tight freezer bag. It will keep for up to 3 months.
To thaw, just let it sit in your refrigerator for 6-7 hours.

“OK so I forgot to add the chocolate before I poured in the cheesecake mixture so I had to spoon out all the cheesecake mixture and add the chocolate in – not a pretty picture.”
Thank you, thank you for admitting this. I look at perfect looking blogs like yours and think no one ever makes the crazy mistakes i do!

I am so glad that you liked the recipe. I have done the same thing for the white chocolate raspberry, only I use the white Lindt bar cut up.
At Cheesecake factory, the red velvet is pretty darn good. It’s the only one I have replicated yet. I love key lime, too.
Loretta says
We don’t get to Cheesecake Factory very often either (can’t afford the calories!! 🙂 but the Reese’s Peanut Butter Chocolate is absolutely wonderful and I’m not a huge peanut butter dessert person, but this is definitely worth a try. If you figure out how to make that one, I want to know!! 🙂

Shelly says
Me too. I always order the White Chocolate Raspberry. TCF is the only one who puts that layer of chocolate above the crust. YUM!! Thanks for the recipe. I will have to try this soon…
