This is one dessert you don’t want to miss.A couple of tips I have learned to make the perfect cheesecake are from Broma Bakery….Make sure ALL ingredients are at true room temperature….The cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream must all be at TRUE room temperature in order to beat together into a creamy, clump-free cheesecake.Do not over beat the cheesecake... Over beating the cheesecake causes air bubbles. And air bubbles mean one thing: cracks. Only beat the cheesecake mixture until it’s creamy!I know your family will love this recipe! Happy Holidays!
