2/10/2009 3:47:55 AM

* If you want to remove a cheesecake from the base of your springform cake tin once it is baked or chilled, line the base with aluminium foil.

* Don't open the oven door during cooking. If you need to, make sure it's not in the first 30 minutes of cooking.

* Unless otherwise noted, baked cheesecakes should be cooled in the oven. That is, once the cooking time has ended, turn the oven off and leave the joor slightly ajar and let the cheesecake sit until cool.

* Cream cheese must be softened before you use it to make your cheesecake. The best way to do this is to leave it out on the bench for an hour or so before using it. If you don't have time to do that, unwrap the cheesecake from all wrapping. Place it in a microwave safe bowl and microwave it on high for 30 seconds at 10 second intervals, checking it in between. Don't let it melt or get warm.

* Cook cheesecakes on the middle rack of your oven. A shallow pan of water placed on the bottom shelf of the oven can assist in avoiding cracks in the top of the cheesecake.
