Common Mistakes to Avoid

Making Cheesecake Fluff can be easy, but there are common pitfalls to watch out for.

• Ignoring cream cheese temperature. Using cold cream cheese can lead to a lumpy mixture. Always ensure your cream cheese is softened before mixing.
• Overmixing the whipped topping. Be careful not to whip the heavy cream too long. Overwhipping can turn it into butter instead of achieving stiff peaks.
• Not measuring sweetness correctly. The sweetness can vary based on personal preference. Start with less powdered sugar substitute and adjust to taste.
• Skipping the folding technique. Mixing too vigorously when combining the whipped topping and cream cheese can deflate your fluffy texture. Gently fold to maintain lightness.
• Using stale ingredients. Fresh berries and quality cream cheese make a significant difference in flavor. Always check your ingredients before use.
