We've made it to the end and you finally get to see what it looks like inside the cheese cakes and how to plate them. So when I cut a slice of cheesecake, cheesecake in and of itself is going to stick to your knife so my trick is to have a cup of really hot water tall enough for your cutting knife to fit all the way down down in for the entire blade to fit in. Now if your water heater does not get your water hot enough, you want to heat your water up on the stove we want to really hot if any cream cheese or cheese cake tries to stick. Hopefully it's hot enough to just melt it off and we're not going to have any stick and we'll get a really nice clean cut. I already have the whipped cream ready to go I put it in a piping bag which is just a regular piping tip.

And it's totally optional. You can just dollop whipped cream on and I have a nice little plate Carnival class, which is my favorite class and you need a clean kitchen towel. Don't use a dirty kitchen towel, use a clean kitchen towel and of course your cheesecake. The first thing we're going to do my knife has been sitting in here for about a minute. To take the knife out, wipe the water off and quickly finding the center of my cheesecake. Make my first cut, making sure to go all the way to the bottom through the cross and you can see there's a little bit sticking.

We're just going to put that back into our hot water and let it melt off. But you can also see it gave me a really nice clean cut. Okay, and then wipe off whatever's left on the knife. Determine how big you want your slice to be. Go right there. always pull straight out.

When you're pulling the knife out. You don't want to pull straight up or anything, it's gonna give it a weird cut. Clean off my knife one more time. You can see the splice is already pulling away from everything so it's completely detached. It's gonna go right on my plate. There we go.

It's such a nice clean cut. You can see the definition of the crust and the cheese cake. It didn't catch anywhere. It just looks really smooth. So that's what I'm looking for. And then I just have this little space here.

I'm going to pipe some whipped cream just like that. And there we go. Cleaning cheesecake. Now you can pipe next to it, but you can also pipe. Sometimes I like to pipe just a border, or you can pipe a classic dollop right on top, whatever. Or you can do it like this.

If you like what we've created that's up to you, but that is how you cut the perfect slice of cheesecake.
