3 - Hi A-Risu, pardon me what does “atm” means? “Doesn’t seem to be browning at the top!” I guess you are referring to your cheesecake am I right? Have u see my blueberry cheesecake? Both share the same recipe.

I wasn’t too sure why too but could it be…
Did you preheat your oven? Oven needs to be preheated at least for 5 minutes.
Did you open the oven door while it still baking? Never open oven door when it halfway bake.

Happy baking ^^ (Comment this)

4 - sorry atm meant at the moment~
well the cake turned out a bit too wet??
but i did preheat da oven for quite a while..
i think 160 might be a bit too low?
175 seems to be the right temperature.. (Comment this)

5 - Sorry for being a mountain tortoise on the “atm” I got it now lol. ^^ The cheesecake should be moist.

For the temperature, I guess it might be because of the heat element? Like oven and the microwave oven? I’m using the microwave oven, I do has problems getting the right temperature too but not the cheesecake.
