I just made this oreo cookie cheesecake. They're pretty easy to make and taste very yummy. My question is this, why do my cheesecakes always crack down the middle? Am I not cooking them long enough? Too long? Any ideas?
I think I remember hearing to put the cheesecake in a larger pan with water in it. So it's in the regular cheesecake pan, but then you put that into a larger pan with water...something like that. Google it and see what it says. I have no cheesecake baking experience. It looks good though! You should start a baking blog.
well, i think anna has that taken care of over at cookie madness. i've got three recipes from there i'm wanting to make. i'll google the cheesecake thing. want me to save you a piece?
I never saw a cheesecake without a crack in the top unless your sister or Bill Thompson made it. I always cover mine up with a little sour cream but don't know about an oreo cookie one. Love, Mom
believe it or not, i think that is the way you tell that a cheesecake is done--it cracks down the middle, slightly. you might want to shave off a few minutes of cooking time, so the crack isn't as large? looks delish!
