I had to - 'cause I hate to tell you this - but; I get a perfect cheesecake every time, so other than the corn starch I was stumped. Here are some things I came across: 1. Wrapping the pan with foil keeps it watertight. 2. If you grease the sides of the pan first, the surface will not crack when the cake starts to shrink on cooling. (It always shrinks a little). 3. Chill thoroughly before unmolding. In fact, I make my cheesecakes one day ahead of serving and leave it in the springform till I'm ready to use. 4. The water bath pan must NOT be higher than the springform pan or it will slow down baking. Also, put no more than 1" of water in pan. 5. Check oven temperature for accuracy. 6. When done, turn oven off, DO NOT OPEN DOOR, let sit for one hour. Then remove, place on a rack, and let cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. 7. Use 1 Tbl cornstarch per 2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese. Use Phila delphia brand cream cheese. It is the best and works EVERY time. 8. IMPORTANT: Use the egg size specified. If none is specified, use large (not jumbo or extra-large). Well, Claudia, this is all I can think of. I hope some of these hints will be useful to you. There's nothing greater than a fabulous cheesecake. (Except, of course, maybe a flan) :) That's my favorite! Let me know what you think.

Butter the sides only of an 8-in. springform pan. Make the crust by mixing the cracker crumbs and 1 T. sugar in a bowl. Add the butter and rub it in until all of the crumbs are dampened by the fat. Distribute the crumbs loosely but evenly in the pan and press them in ; pushing them slightly up the sides. Cover and chill while you make the filling; preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using an electric mixer, cream the cream cheese, honey, and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the remaining ingredients and continue to beat until evenly blended; use the greater amount of ginger if you want a pronounced ginger flavor, the lesser amount for a subtle effect. Scrape the filling into the pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool the cake thoroughly on a rack--it will take several hours--then cover, still in the pan, and refrigerate for 12 hours before unmolding and slicing. Note: Ken Haedrich writes, "I have played around some with baking cheesecakes in a water bath, curious to see if it made any difference in the final cake.

Soften cream cheese and beat until SMOOTH. (I 'defrost' it in the nuker.) Add the sugar and vanilla and beat well. Add the eggs and sour cream. Pour batter into a buttered 10" round, 2" deep cake pan (or comparable springform). Place pan in another pan of water about 1/2" deep (I use my broiler pan) and bake @ 350 for 45 - 60 minutes or until top begins to turn a light toast color. The cake will not be set. Remove from oven and cool, then refrigerate for about 2 hours. If you have used a springform pan, you can remove the cake and serve. I use the cake pan, so I freeze the cake in the pan. To de-pan, I turn a stove burner to high and move the pan around on the burner for about 45 seconds. Then I invert it over a plate. If the cake does not fall out of the pan, I give it another turn on the burner for about 10 seconds and try again. Sometimes, tapping the inverted pan on the bottom hastens the process. I then either wrap the cake and replace in freezer for later use or let it continue to defrost in the fri dge. AH, I guess these instructions are too detailed for you, but someone else may need them. Anyway, this is a very basic, creamy cake...good served with canned toppings, fresh fruit, sauce of your choice, etc. It serves 10 to 16 people, depending on how many of them are watching their weight or cholesterol. Can be re-frozen. I like it as is, but my uncle has added hazelnuts to the batter. Who knows Formatted by Elaine Radis - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.

Wrapping the pan with foil keeps it watertight. 2. If you grease the sides of the pan first, the surface will not crack when the cake starts to shrink on cooling. (It always shrinks a little). 3. Chill thoroughly before unmolding. In fact, I make my cheesecakes one day ahead of serving and leave it in the springform till I'm ready to use it. 4. The water bath pan must NOT be higher than the springform pan or it will slow down baking. Also, put no more than 1" of water in the pan. 5. Check oven temperature for accuracy. 6. When cheesecake is done, turn oven off, DO NOT OPEN DOOR, let sit for 1 hour. Then remove, place on a rack, and let cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. 7. Use 1 Tablespoon cornstarch per 2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese. Use Philadelphia brand cream cheese. It is the best and works EVERY time. 8. IMPORTANT: Use the egg size specified. If none is specified, use large (not jumbo or extra-large) size. Reetz says if all of these tips are followed, you should have a fabulous, non-falling cheesecake. She had to research all of this great information because as she says "cause I hate to tell you this - but, I get a perfect cheesecake every time." And I don't doubt that for a minute, Reetz.
