Notes

When cheesecake is baking, DO NOT open oven to check on it. Opening will release heat and change temperature, resulting in inconsistent cheesecake. Turn on oven light to check cheesecake.
Pull out ingredients at least 1 hour prior to making cheesecake. All ingredients should be at room temperature to ensure smooth consistency.
Let cheesecake cool overnight, skipping this process will not let cheesecake fully set.
