Comments on: Lemon New York Style Cheesecake with Gingersnap Crust https://www.closetcooking.com/lemon-new-york-style-cheesecake-with/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

This cheesecake freezes well so you can make it ahead of time! Enjoy!

My only question is, can you make the cheesecake ahead
of time and freeze it?

Thanks.

Hi Josephine! Please follow the directions as written in the recipe! I am not sure how the other comments got on this page; I think they were directed towards another one of my cheesecake recipes, the Guinness Chocolate Cheesecake, which does use the residual heat in the oven to finish baking. Bake this cheesecake for the time specified (based on size), remove from oven and let cool on the counter. Enjoy!

Hi Kevin, I’m a little confused with the cooling of this cheesecake. Above (Victoria – July 18 2021) it seems you’re saying to leave the cheesecake “in the residual heat of the oven until it’s finishes baking”. Then (Jodi A Benz – November 21 2022) You’re saying to bake the 40-50 minutes then remove to the benchtop to cool.
I’m confused as to after baking for 40-50 minutes do we leave the cheesecake in the residual heat to cool or do we remove it completely from the oven after the 40-50 minutes and cool completely on the benchtop?
Sorry if I’m confusing you, but between the two questions it’s leaving me a bit confused. I would appreciate if you could please clear up to what we actually have do with the cooling process.
Thank you, as I love all your wonderful recipes and look forward to them coming through to Australia.

I am a little confused, the step you mention is not a part of this recipe. For the 6-7 inch size you bake the cheesecake until set, which should be about 40-50 minutes. Once it is baked/set you remove it from the oven top cool on the counter.

Can you verify, please? My attempt at the 6-7″ recipe came out runny, and never set. I love the flavors and want to try to make it again, only would like it to set. Thank you!!

This cheesecake should be baked before the oven is turned off and the cheesecake is removed. The bake times are estimates and you can tell that it is done baking when the sides are solid and the centre is still a little jiggly when you shake it.

I don’t however understand about leaving the cake in the oven for cooling……..doesn’t the cake get overcooked in the warm oven’ even if the oven is off. Thanks so much

Here’s the message she sent me after she tried it. “Wow, Wow, Wow that was the best thing I’ve ever tasted”. I was tickled pink that she loved it! Thank you for the wonderful recipe. I’ll make this again.
