depends on the recipe whether you bake or freeze!. Sometimes you bake it then freeze it!.

I like buying the graham cracker crust!. In it I put a new cheesecake product made by Philladelphia cream cheese!.!.!.the cheese cake filling comes already made!. Just put it into the crust and put in the frig and eat it cold!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are "no-bake" cheesecakes, that usually go in the refrigerator (not freezer)!. They wouldn't have any raw eggs in them; in fact, Jell-O makes mixes for them!. They're also usually made in a pie pan, because they're really more of a cheesecake pie!. For a baked cheesecake, you'd use a springform pan, because they're taller!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends on the recipe you are using, but a traditional chz cake is baked!. the kinds you freeze don't use all of the ingredients that a true chz cake uses!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

different recipes for different kinds of cheesecakes
some are dense and baked (the best, in my opinion)
some are fluffy and just require chilling
some require freezing

do what ever your recipe or box says!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

When you make one from scratch, it's usually baked!. When using a box, use the instructions on the box!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

REAL cheesecakes, yes!.!.!. they are always baked (in a springform)!. Boxed cheesecakes!.!.!.!. do whatever the box tells you to!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you're using a box, follow the recipe on the box!. A "from scratch" recipe requires baking, but a box mix is a wild card!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well real cheesecake, yes, you should bake!. But I would assume you used a boxed mix, like Jello or something, and yes, those are no bake!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
