NOTES :
☆ Do not over mix to avoid cheesecake from cracking while baking.
☆ Making them ahead of time will be a better idea as it needs to be chilled before serving.
☆ Make sure to set the filling ingredients come to room temperature.This will ensure a a smooth and creamier cheesecake filling.
☆ Use full fat cream cheese and sour cream for a richer texture and flavour.
☆ Add in one egg at a time on low speed until just combined.Over mixing the eggs into the cheesecake batter can incorporate too much air and cause them to crack.
☆ The cheesecakes are done when the top will puff up in the oven and look set.The centre will still be just a little jiggly.They will continue to set up as they cool and once they're refrigerated.
☆ If they start to crack while baking that means they are getting over cooked.
