I did not grease my springform pan for my no-bake cheesecake. It was very difficult to get the crust off the bottom. I really like the idea of lining the it with parchment paper so I could slide it right off onto a serving plate right away. That's what I'll do in future!

The main reason for using the parchment paper is to protect the bottom of your pan.

The second reason to use the parchment paper is for the ease of moving the cake to a cake plate.

Unless you are the only one cutting the cake the knife could leave scratches on the bottom of your pan.

Then if you ever use the pan without the parchment paper it will really stick then.

My sourdough starter has died a death.
I've not used it for months. Just moved it and it was growing pink and green fluff.

Sorry. Grease pan and Grease the parchment? Aria

No, sorry, I didn't grease anything. I meant I served the cheesecake on the base of the springform pan. But as an experiment, since it was the first time I used it, and somebody had said they didn't grease theirs and had no trouble, I didn't grease mine. Sorry I was unclear. In future I will definitely grease something, lol!

Thank you, @Ladies-Eight ! I have a plastic cake knife with a rounded leading edge. And nobody better cut cake but me, lol. Or wash my pans, either. So .. should I grease both the bottom of the cake pan AND the surface of the parchment paper before packing the crust on? I am so confused now!

I am sorry! Did you have some dehydrated as a backup?

No, But its ok I'll make another when I want to make sourdough again.

I believe you just grease the bottom of the pan.
What kind of crust did you make for your cheesecake that it stuck?
I usually make a graham cracker crust and I have trouble with my springform pan leaking butter when baking it. No sticking on the pan bottom for sure.

I made some FANTASTIC giant GF chocolate chip cookies. They're a hit at school! Very easy to make, too.

I clicked the link, and it wouldn't show the recipe unless I signed up. Or signed in. Or signed on the dotted line. Or something. Do you have the recipe? I would love a GF chocolate chip cookie recipe...

I typed "chocolate chick" cookie recipe. I have chicks on the brain, cuz I'm still waiting to hear when I can go pick them up!
