Hello, guys! Today, I am sharing with you this SUPER EASY TO MAKE STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE.
I like this recipe so much, because even though you haven’t tried your hand making a cheesecake, you can’t fail with it. You just have to follow this tips below.
TIPS TO MAKE MINI STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE:
- Make sure it’s creamy and mixture is free of lumps.
- In this recipe, the cheesecake mixture is enough for the 12 muffin pans and 2 inch cupcake liner.
- I used 3 packs of Honey Made graham crackers
- Beat cream cheese by itself, add the sugar, and if still fills rough, beat a little bit more and the add the egg one at a time.
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature and beat it until smooth. I beat this for about 4- 5 minutes.
- Bake the cheesecake for 20 minutes and let cool for another 20 before adding the strawberry preserves and frosting.
- Use shot glass to press the Graham crackers.
- Fill the liner with 6 tablespoons batter, just ¾ fill of the batter.
WHAT WILL I DO IF THERE IS CRACK ON TOP?
This recipe doesn’t have to be perfect. I made this, and have made it so many times; and sometimes, cracks appeared on the cheesecake due to over baking or for whatever reason there was. The imperfections can be hidden by adding frosting in it, or if you don’t want to add frosting, just ignore the cracks and devour it; it still taste delicious. So have a trial and error with your oven, and see what’s what the perfect time for you to take out the cake without cracking, in my oven, I took the cheesecake out after 18 minutes.
WHAT IF THERE ARE LUMPS IN MY CHEESECAKE MIXTURE?
Ideally, there should be no lumps on your cheesecake, and you can achieve this by putting your cheesecake in a room temperature, and beating it first until it becomes smooth before adding the rest of the ingredients.
WHAT ARE THE PERFECT TOPPINGS FOR THIS CHEESECAKE?
I made this with lime, chocolate and strawberry and now making it with lemon flavor. This is just a perfect base for a cheesecake.
