Fruit loops cheesecake: a different way to bake a rainbow cheesecake

I wanted to show the instructables community how to easily bake a cheesecake from scratch. My inspiration came from Tolstoi78's Rainbow Cheesecake. Thanks!!!

Step 1 The right equipment

The most important piece of equipment for baking a cheesecake from scratch is a springform pan. The pan has a latch on the side to remove the bottom easily. This allows the cake to bake evenly. Removing and more importantly eating the cake is made simple with this type of pan.
Also, you will need a mixer and really any mixer will work. A pan larger than you springform pan at least 2 in deep and a cooking thermometer will also be needed.

Finally, I like to have a good recipe book around. I would like to give a shout out to Baking Illustrated: The practical kitchen companion for the home baker. This book was put together by America's Test Kitchen. It includes not only tested recipes, but the science behind certain aspects of baking.

umm... no ofense but i prefer to follow the traditional recipe. i take cooking seriously and i don't like to play with food.

Successful chefs got where they are by playing with their food. The proof is in the pudding. Or birthday cakes, as in my case.

haha. please relax. i have just added a world of color.  the only way to really expand yourself is to play.  you have to sometimes live outside the confines of a recipe to make things new again.

just a query, for the second instruction on decreasing the temp to 200, is 200 degrees in farenheit or celsius? i know the first step was 500 degrees farenheit, just wondering about the second step. Anyway its an absolutely beautiful cake! itd be a GREAT head turner dish at any party!

I have made this cheesecake before with a red velvet bottom, but instead of pouring the colors in on top of each other (which is a great idea), I spooned the different colors in randomly and tapped the springform on the counter to seat the filling.  This gave the tie-dye effect that Amyisaloser6 is referring to.  Trust me it's a crowd pleaser and everyone thinks it's so difficult to make!  Thanks for sharing your method!

I will try this with cocoa crispies and a rocky road filling I think.

[Amyisaloser6]

i'm going to make this, but after i pour all the colors in i'm going to get a toothpick and kind of cut the colors from the center to outer edge and vice versa. So that it will make it look like tie-dye. I love your instrucable!

i like Test Kitchen. most of their stuff is okay, except for their choice of mayonnaise.
