Triple Chocolate Instant Pot Cheesecake Recipe

What Instant Pot Cheesecake Pan Should I Use?

When you are making a cheesecake in the Instant Pot, you want to use a 7 inch springform pan. Springform pans are pans that the sides and the bottom are detachable. This makes it easy to get the cheesecake out of the pan. Simply release the latch that holds the side of the pan on and lift it away. The cheesecake is on the base of the pan that can work as a serving plate until the cheesecake is cut.

How Much Water Do I Put in My IP for Cheesecake?

When you are making Instant Pot cheesecake you want to add 1 cup of water to the inner pot. Then you use the trivet, the metal stand, and place that in the center of the Instant Pot. This elevates the cheesecake out of the water creating a simple water bath. You need the water in order to create the pressure in the IP.

How Long Does Chocolate Cheesecake Last

When you are making homemade cheesecake, it will usually last about 5 days in the refrigerator. After 5 days, it is no longer considered safe to eat. However, if you think that you will not get the chance to eat all of the cheesecake before it goes bad, you can consider freezing it. I recommend freezing as soon as possible to give it a longer life when you take it out of the freezer, although if you are like me, once the slice of cheesecake comes out of the freezer, the slice is already gone.

Can I Freeze Extra Instant Pot Chocolate Cheesecake?

One of my favorite things to do when I am making Instant Pot Chocolate Cheesecake, or any kind of cheesecake really, is to freeze the extras. By freezing the extra pieces of cheesecake I can have cheesecake whenever I want it. I like to freeze the slices in individual pieces so that I can take a slice out at a time without taking the whole cheesecake out.

When you are ready to thaw the cheesecake to eat, you will want to move it to the refrigerator for a bit to let it thaw out. If you plan on eating it almost right away, you can have it at room temperature for a short time so that it thaws and becomes the creamy cheesecake you are craving.
