Room Temperature Ingredients: To achieve a silky-smooth cheesecake filling, make sure your cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature. This helps everything mix together more evenly.
No Kitchen Torch? No Problem! If you don’t have a kitchen torch, you can place the cheesecakes under a broiler for a few minutes to caramelize the sugar. Just keep a close eye on them to avoid burning.
Cooking Tips
Crust Tip: For an even more flavorful crust, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the graham cracker mixture.
Cheesecake Texture: Be careful not to overbake the cheesecakes. They should still have a slight wobble in the center when you take them out of the oven. This ensures a creamy texture once cooled.
If you love experimenting, try swapping the graham crackers for chocolate wafers or even adding a thin layer of fruit compote between the cheesecake and brûlée topping.
