While you shouldn&#8217;t open your oven door during that first 45 minutes of baking, you may need to bake your cheesecake for a little additional time. To make sure that your cheesecake is done, give it the jiggle test. Wearing oven mitts, gentle move it back and forth. If the cheesecake only slightly jiggles, it is done. It will continue to set up as it cools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also give it the touch test. Gently touch the top center of the cheesecake. If it&#8217;s firm but still with some give, it is done. Keep in mind that cheesecakes made with sour cream will be slightly more jiggly than all cream cheese based cheesecakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last, you can always use an instant read thermometer to test the temperature. If the internal temperature of the cheesecake is 150 degrees, it is done. Make sure that you only test the center and don&#8217;t touch the bottom of the pan and the crust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-top-tip-for-easy-strawberry-shortcake-cheesecake\">Top Tip for Easy Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Easy Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake\" class=\"wp-image-4694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/thesaltycooker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/StrawberryShortcakeCheesecake-BLOG1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheesecake is all about that creamy and dreamy texture.
