FAQ:

Can I use homemade whipped cream instead of Cool Whip? Yes, homemade whipped cream can be used in place of Cool Whip. Just make sure to whip the cream until stiff peaks form before folding it into the pudding mixture.

Can I make this cheesecake without a springform pan? If you don’t have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch round cake pan, but it might be harder to remove the cheesecake from the pan. Be sure to line the pan with parchment paper for easier removal.

How do I prevent my cheesecake from cracking? To prevent cracking, ensure that the cheesecake cools gradually in the oven with the door cracked, and be sure to refrigerate it completely before slicing.
