    Bake for 10 minutes or until toasted and golden (reduce heat to 325°F). Let crust cool completely.

    Bake in a water bath for 40 to 45 minutes or until cheesecake is set but jiggles slightly in center. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled.

    Cut cheesecake into slices. Garnish each slice with whipped cream and a tortilla chip.

Tips & Tricks

  • Create a water bath by transferring filled pie plate to large roasting pan. Fill the perimeter with boiling water reaching 1 inch up sides of pie plate. Carefully transfer to and from oven. For individual cheesecakes, press crumb mixture into paper-lined standard muffin cups and adjust bake time as needed.
