- Be sure to scrape down the sides of your bowl while mixing the cheesecake filling.
- A hand or stand mixer are the best ways to mix this cheesecake batter.
⁉️ FAQ
Do you have questions about this recipe? Here are the answers to the most commonly asked questions.
It’s a type of cheesecake that uses pudding or whipped topping to create a light, airy filling rather than eggs and flour for leavening.
Baked cheesecake uses eggs and/or flour to thicken the cheesecake batter and is baked in the oven. No-bake cheesecake is actually more like a mousse that’s made with whipped cream or pudding and cream cheese.
Over time, ice crystals form in the cheesecake no matter how well it’s wrapped. After about a month, cheesecake will start to become grainy from those ice crystals.
