❓ FAQs

Q: How do I know when my cheesecake is done?
A: The center should jiggle slightly but not be liquid. It will firm up as it cools.

Q: Can I use coconut milk instead of coconut cream?
A: Coconut cream is thicker and richer — stick with it for the best texture.

Q: My cheesecake cracked — what did I do wrong?
A: Overbaking or cooling too quickly can cause cracks. No worries — the frosting covers them beautifully!
