Tips

  • Super important to not over blend the wet ingredients, blend on low for only 5-7 seconds to avoid incorporating too much air.
  • When combining wet and dry ingredients, mix to avoid clumping and be careful not to overmix to ensure the perfect cheesecake.
  • Cover the bottoms of the springform pans with aluminum foil to prevent water from the water bath from getting into the cheesecakes.
  • Add warm water to the oven-safe pan for a water bath (bain-marie) to ensure cheesecakes cook evenly and don't fall flat.
  • Once baked, slightly open the oven door, turn off the oven, and leave cheesecakes in for another 25 minutes.
  • Let cheesecakes cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then transfer to the fridge in springform pans for 4-6 hours (or overnight) for best results.
  • For the topping, add fat-free cool whip and crushed fruity pebbles, then place in the freezer for 30-60 minutes to let the cool whip turn to ice cream.
