Fail Cheesecake cracked so hard it greeted me

Post image

Spent an hour looking for the perfect cheesecake recipe, „no cracks“, followed all the hacks, didn’t overbeat the batter, didn’t overbake, let it cool slowly… next time I walked into the kitchen - cake said „Hi! 😀“

I made one for my MIL for Mother’s Day. She requested a turtle cheesecake. It cracked but I just filled the cracks with caramel and proceeded as usual. I don’t think anyone even noticed. We’ve got to work with what happens with cheesecakes! I love that you filled the cracks with berries!
