Critical Success Points

  • Pressing the crust evenly to avoid thin spots.
  • Beating cream cheese until completely smooth before adding sugar.
  • Adding eggs one at a time to prevent curdling.
  • Baking at low temperature (300°F) and checking for a slight jiggle.
  • Cooling the cheesecake slowly to prevent cracks.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oven and baking pan can cause burns; use oven mitts.
  • Melted cookie butter is very hot; handle with care to avoid scalds.
  • Raw eggs carry a risk of salmonella; ensure the cheesecake reaches a safe internal temperature (around 150°F).
