Step 1 Making the Crust Processing Cookies for Cheesecake Crust.  Cheesecakes are always a hit, and if you've never made one before, you may wonder how to get started. Grab a cheesecake recipe that looks good to you so you know the exact amount of ingredients you need, like this No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake recipe.

Step 9 Loosen Sides Loosen Sides of Cheesecake with a Knife.  Once the cheesecake is removed from the oven, allow it to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Use a knife to go around the pan to loosen the cake from the pan. Place the completely cooled cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours. Don't remove the sides until the cheesecake is cold.	Step 10 It's Cheesecake! Chocolate Cheesecake.  Cheesecake is best-served cold. I like mine topped with whipped cream and/or some seasonal fruit. It's good plain, too.
