Philadelphia Easter Mini Cheesecakes FAQ’s

How far in advance can mini cheesecakes be made?

If stored in the fridge, mini cheesecakes be made 3 days in advance. Even longer if frozen!

Can mini cheesecakes be frozen?

Yes! Freeze uncovered until firm, then cover with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Defrost overnight in the fridge.

How do you know when a mini cheesecake is done?

If baking a cheesecake, gently wiggle the pan. When it’s done, the whole cake should be solid, with a little jiggle in the center. The center firms up as the cheesecake cools out of the oven.

Why did my cheesecake fall?

This can be prevented by placing a shallow pan full of water on the lower rack in the oven. This tip will also help prevent cracks in the top of the cheesecake.
