Critical Success Points

  • Press the speculoos and butter mixture into the molds to obtain a solid base.
  • Thicken the lemon glaze to a coating consistency without letting the egg coagulate.
  • Freeze the cheesecakes before unmolding to prevent them from breaking.

Safety Warnings

  • The glaze gets hot; handle the saucepan with gloves or a towel.
  • Do not let the mixture boil too long to avoid egg coagulation.
